How Did It All Start?
My company literally started in my kitchen because of my lil guy, MJ. A fantastic funny kid, who so happens to be on the autism spectrum.
Leaving corporate America to take care of my son and also discovering he had food sensitivities, forced me to quickly establish a new normal as a stay-at-home mom and adjust the way I prepared meals.
So, I got in my kitchen and started experimenting. I loved it so much, I decided to take plant-based cooking courses to learn about whole organic foods, plant-based nutrition and proper cooking methods. Developing healthy plant-based meals was an eye opener. My son’s food sensitivities were getting better, and I was also feeling and looking better.
Then it clicked, why not inspire and help others on how they can “own” their healthy through the power of food…thus creating BFit | BFly.

My Food Philosophy
“
Keep it simple, clean, and fresh. Like most people, I’m busy so meals must be quick, healthy, and easy, but still delicious.

What Do I Eat?
As a Personal Plant Based Lifestyle Chef, you can probably guess I eat lots of whole grains, sprouted oats, nuts, seeds, colorful veggies, green leafy veggies, whole fruit, tempeh, avocado, olives, spices, and expeller pressed oils. With the addition of wild caught sustainable fish once in a while.
I tell people, though, don’t focus on what you can’t eat. Everyone is different, it’s important to focus on foods that work best for your health goals. Explore what works long term (not the short-term diets) and be consistent in that.
