Erin Wade Changed Her Community with Mac and Cheese 

Erin Wade got a law degree from Berkeley in 2008, but quickly realized that she hated being a lawyer. Instead, she turned to her childhood love: mac and cheese. She is now the founder and CEO of Homeroom, a popular mac and cheese restaurant in Oakland, where she and her team have also pioneered a revolutionary tool for dealing with workplace harassment called the Color Code of Conduct. Homeroom has now been open for 11 years, with a new location opening in Berkeley in 2022.
