For the LOVE of FOOD Nutrition

Food and culture were things I have always had a love for. When I was younger, I would sit at the kitchen counter and help my parents or grandparents cook. At a young age, I was fortunate to travel to all over the world, which strengthened my love for food and culture.  I became even more invested in learning about the different cultures, food, languages and culinary techniques. My dream is to share my love for food, nutrition and cultures in a hands on and interactive way. I believe that if you read something, you may remember it for a while, but if you do something, you’ll remember it for a lifetime! I strive to find fun, practical approaches to nutrition with my clients.
