- Cream is my middle name. I LOVE cream. Fresh cream is my favorite food, end of story.

- I'm a dog person who also loves cats. My senior Lhasa/Shih tzu, Emmy, is more cat than dog and thinks she can take on German Shepherds. 

- The forest is my happy place, but I also adore the ocean. I just love all nature. 

- I started learning Royal Conservatory piano at five years old and graduated grade 10 (piano) at nineteen. I can still play 4 and a half pieces. 

- I've wanted to write an epic fiction novel since I was about 3 minutes old. I've made multiple attempts, but no finished projects. 

- I used to sing and play guitar and released my EP in 2020. It no longer feels like "me" but I'd love to write music again some day.

- I rarely crave anything other than fresh oranges. 

- My idea of a delicious beverage is bubbly mineral water, half a squeezed lime, a teaspoon or two of maple syrup, and fresh mint. I guess that's basically a virgin mojito.

- I got my level one Yoga Teacher Training certificate when I was twenty-one and it took me ten years to teach my first class... and even that was a bit of a fluke.

- I got diagnosed with Hashimoto's and Hypothyroidism at twenty-seven and have been managing it ever since with diet and lifestyle - no meds.

- I'm the girl who's tried to restrict her way to health countless times. I thought less food was better. I tried vegetarian, low fat, high carb/high fat, low carb, mainly-fruit, AIP (autoimmune protocol), water fasting, and raw vegan. Needless to say, I am not a proponent of ANY of these ways of eating (or not eating) at this time. I currently eat a well-balanced, whole foods diet centered around bio-available protein, healthy fats (mostly saturated), nutrient dense carbohydrates, and chocolate. The best "diet" is the one that is sustainable, minimizes stress, and makes you feel alive!
