Colicchio is a passionate guitar player and music aficionado, as you'll hear when he sings one of the riffs in the Stevie Ray Vaughan song that we want to use as the Special Sauce theme song in the near future.

Next week, you'll learn even more about his work to improve food policy, so stay tuned for part two.
