I'm a dedicated vegan, natural foods chef and cooking tutor. My passion is for teaching people to create delicious and healthy meals using intuition and creativity in the process. My aim is to do this by meeting people where they are without judgment. Clients have varied between individuals, families, and groups with prepared meals or courses geared towards their wishes, preferences, health issues/dietary restrictions, and cultural considerations. Some are vegan or vegetarian and some are omnivores who understand the health benefits of including phytonutrients in their diets. My biggest accomplishment so far is getting some finicky kids to enjoy broccoli.
I love to see the look of accomplishment in the eyes of adult students when they realize they can cook delicious and beautiful meals for themselves and family/friends. It doesn't have to be stressful. Having students make decisions for themselves is a good motivator and can be fun. Another delight for me is helping children find a passion for food, cooking, and health.
