Learn how easy it can be to create a healthy meal and take the stress out of deciding what to eat. Together, we’ll optimize your culinary choices, empowering you to make meals that are as nutritious as they are delicious.

Currently I specialize in developing boutique brands, connecting them with the right accelerators and assisting with operations. I’ve managed teams, created custom menus and ensured top-quality culinary experiences. Let’s work together!
Combining over a decade of culinary expertise, consulting and coaching experience, I offer a unique approach to health and wellness. Find a balanced approach to life that allows for daily enjoyment, mindful indulgence and achieves your lifestyle goals.
