I have been a vegetarian since childhood and a vegan and following a whole food, plant-based diet for more than ten years. I live in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and work as a nurse practitioner in primary care and as a professor of nursing at a university. In these roles, I see the effects that diet has on health. I discuss plant-forward and plant-based diets with patients and students. I have a strong interest in helping others benefit from whole foods and a plant-based diet, and being a Food for Life instructor is a great way to get the message out to my community.
