a little about me…

Curiosity is my compass. I’m a lifelong learner, constantly uncovering how food, wellness and human connection intertwine.

What matters most to me is creating experiences that bring people together, ignite wonder and leave a lasting ripple, whether its through a shared meal, a cooking class, a moment around a table or a nutrition counseling session.

I believe every person has the power to create something beautiful in the world.

For me, cooking is the language of my soul. Nutrition counseling is how I guide others to deepen their relationship with food, aligning body and mind. I trust in food as medicine, and I see our gardens and local farms as the most powerful apothecaries. This view is what leads me to believe that as we heal ourselves, we awaken the capacity to heal the world around us.

MY JOURNEY

I grew up in an agricultural community among orange orchards, olive groves, guavas, and prickly pears. It was a place of community, play, great food, and shared experiences- a place of sweet being. I met my future husband and we built a beautiful family together. Through all of life's ups and downs, we had one another. And then one day it ended and I was suddenly on my own figuring out how to pick up the pieces of my life while trying to keep our family intact.

Change can be brutal but also inevitable. I now know it to be an invitation, an opportunity for self-transformation. This personal journey brought me back into the kitchen in a very intentional way - first nourishing my body back to health and then sharing this gift with others.

Sweet Being Wellness is a tribute to my Mediterranean roots grounded by food memories as well as my personal journey. It is a platform for those who seek healthy living and a path to nourishing body and mind.
