​Food is hands down one of the most powerful ways we can take care of ourselves, and I believe that it should also be honored, celebrated and enjoyed.

​To say that food has played a role in my personal evolution would be an understatement.

A decade ago, I uncharacteristically and drastically changed my diet in a matter of months. I went from a cluelessly suffering fast food worker (true story), to a brand new whole food plant based graduate student, all without knowing a single other soul who was also questioning mainstream society's food choices.

Despite feeling alone, I kept investigating the food system and exploring alternative ideas on what it really means to be healthy. As my palate expanded and cooking skills improved, I began to notice changes in my body and life.

​First, my physical health subtly transformed. I dropped a few pounds and found them easy to keep off. My chronic digestive pain stopped flaring up. My sleep improved, and my skin was clearer than ever. To my surprise at the time, this was followed by better cognitive performance and mood, overall confidence, and a growing sense of connection to others and all that is.

Years later, I can now confidently say that adopting a healthy, cleansing, and high vibrational diet helped to create not only a thriving, resilient body, but a stronger connection with my internal guidance and alignment in all areas of my life. 

​Since then, my curiosity and passion for exploring the role that food plays in our lives has only expanded. This hunger for knowledge has led to many enriching and unforgettable experiences around the globe, exploring cultural traditions, culinary practices, and ancient wisdom. I've taken cooking lessons all over the world, discovered countless new ingredients, and immersed myself in the study of food and healing traditions.

My approach to cooking is rooted in simplicity and inspired by nature. I intuitively meet clients' needs on their unique, personal path to health. It is truly my honor and joy to share this wisdom and support the health and lives of my clients.
