Evan Wizner

Hi, my name is Evan Wizner, I am the Test Baker for Revent USA. I started baking in 2012 in the Bay Area California where I first found my passion for baking sourdough. I spent the last 10 years perfecting my craft while expanding my skillset and knowledge base. My Kung Fu is artisan baking sourdough and viennoiserie. Here at Revent, I am able to practice and experiment in ways that have greatly helped my understanding of baking and fermentation. If I were to simplify my baking philosophy in one phrase, it would be: time and temperature. Time and temperature are the secret ingredients in baking and fortunately for our community, there are no secrets! So come join me early next year as I help to unpack the secrets of time and temperature and baking in rack/convection ovens.

Michael Landman:

Hello, I am Michael Landman! I was born and raised in Peru, and while I have a degree in Information Systems Engineering my a deepest passion is for cooking and baking. Ever since I moved to the US almost 3 years ago, I’ve been following my dream and training myself every day to become better in this wonderful craft. I started small, baking just a couple sourdough loaves at home per month. Then I started working at Zak The Baker in Miami, FL, and suddenly found myself baking around 1500 loaves during the overnight shift for two years. After that, I switched to the day team for a few months and finally in July I relocated to NJ to work at Revent, where I have the ideal environment to learn and further develop my skills.  In addition to baking for Revent, I am also their Food Technologist focusing on high speed cooking ovens.
