I chose stress management and dietary issues as my specific area of focus after a job change into a completely new field. A few months in I realized I was trying to accommodate too much in my life. I was overwhelmed. My body chemistry completely changed and I was compounding food intolerances I discovered in college. I knew in order to continue with a job I enjoyed I needed to step back and re-evaluate how I was living. I also knew that my situation was not unique and if I could make it through this rough patch I wanted to help others do the exact same thing.

I enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and began to dedicate myself to a different diet every month. This was a two fold process. First, to find a diet that worked for me long term. Second, to gain a working knowledge of each diet outside of a book. Accomplishing this I am now able to advise my clients and provide them with staple recipes. In addition, this formed the base for my meal prep business.

I have always worked in fast paced industries with strange hours. I wanted to help people like me, who enjoy a busy lifestyle, still be able to eat a healthy, balanced diet with limited effort. My meals are healthy, pre-made, and at most need microwaved for two minutes. Some not at all.
