And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Plant-based Chef and Wellness Expert on a Mission to Feed People Food to Live For!

I curated the first plant-based menu in the history of White House State Dinners, June 22, 2023 🫶🏽🌱💚 Believe in all your dreams 🎆✨️🎇

Hello, I'm Chef Nina, a passionate and innovative chef who believes that food is meant to be lived for, not to die for. I am dedicated to teaching others how to liberate themselves through food and sharing the abundance of options available in a plant-based lifestyle!

With a wealth of experience, I have developed wellness training programs, set up and led kitchen operations, and worked closely with culinary master gardeners to create beautiful seed-to-table recipes that are essential for an exceptional plant-strong culinary experience. I regularly present lectures and demonstrations on health, nutrition, and whole plant-based foods around the country and have been recognized as a thought-leader and trailblazer in the plant-based culinary movement.

My passion for culinary excellence has resulted in several victories, including the grand prize winner of the Health Care Culinary contest sponsored by Health Care Without Harm in 2019, the Food Literacy Center Veggie of the Year Chef Champion in 2020, the Food Literacy Center Veggie of the Year Peoples' Choice Award in 2021, and in 2022 one of five lead chefs for the annual Tower Bridge Dinner in Sacramento, California where we fed 850 guests on a bridge.

Join me in my mission to make healthy, delicious, and sustainable food accessible to all with my 'Food To Live For' philosophy. Let's connect on Clubhouse and learn more about how we can nourish our bodies, minds and spirits and our communities together.
