MY MISSION
Reimagining Food: A Journey to Thrive
​
Welcome to a culinary adventure where food is not just sustenance but a celebration of life. I am Nina, your host to a plant-based lifestyle that's not
only delicious but transformative. My mission is to inspire and liberate,
showing you the vibrant world of plant-based living.
​
From my early days in the kitchen with my parents to becoming a
professional chef, I've cultivated a deep love for crafting plant-based
delights. Food is more than a meal; it's a pathway to well-being.
​
Awards like the grand prize in the Health Care Culinary Contest
and the Food Literacy Center accolades in 2020 and 2021 validate
my commitment. I am not just a chef; I am a storyteller, using my
culinary accomplishments to champion accessible, fresh,
and whole plant-based foods.
​
Having served as a guest and lead chef for events across the country,
often standing as the lone plant-based chef, I confidently represent the
diversity and richness of plant-based cuisine. My culinary journey reached
new heights when I was invited to curate the first-ever plant-based menu
in the history of White House State Dinners in 2023. This milestone
underscores my unwavering commitment to expanding the reach of
plant-based cuisine, making it not just a choice but a celebration of
flavors andvalues that stretch deep and wide.
​
Join me on this journey, as we explore the richness of flavors
and the vitality of a plant-powered life. Together, let's make
every meal a testament to living not just for the moment but
for a healthier, more vibrant future.

Thank you for being part of the 'Food To Live For' community!
