My name is Amanda and I'm currently a registered holistic nutritionist with a huge passion for cooking and making healthy meals. I would love the opportunity to give health advice if needed/discussed as well as creating curated meal plans for a family or for a couple as well as then creating those meals and prepping those meals for you. I have a background in working in a kitchen. I've worked in a restaurant in the kitchen for a while and then I worked in front of house, so I know all about table settings and appearances. I then worked into becoming the holistic nutritionist I am now. So I pretty much have a well rounded knowledge and experience of working with food as well as curating the meal plans. I've also cooked for my family since I can remember, so I'm very comfortable and confident in the kitchen and can address all kinds of dietary restrictions. No years in this exact field but lots of kitchen experience

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Food from Toronto Metropolitan University and a Food and Nutrition Management Diploma from Humber College. More importantly, I bring hands-on cooking experience across healthcare. In each semester at Humber College, I took a culinary course where I worked closely with a professional chef on curating various recipes. In TMU, I also took a few culinary-based classes, working in a specialized kitchen. Alongside my experience working as a cook at a long-term care home, I currently work as a Dietitian’s Assistant, supporting nutrition professionals through client materials, professional communication, and evidence-based communication. We have also closely collaborated on creating a cookbook, where I made her healthy recipes, and tested them together I also work as a Cooking and Nutrition Instructor, teaching interactive cooking and nutrition lessons to elementary school children. Designing and teaching engaging, age-appropriate lessons has strengthened my ability to communicate nutrition concepts clearly, foster a positive relationship with food, and create a welcoming, organized cooking environment, all while collaborating closely with a team. Altogether, my academic training and practical experience have provided me with a strong foundation in both cooking and nutrition, which I continue advancing through hands-on professional work. Most recently, I worked as a Cook and Prep-Cook in a long-term care setting, preparing and cooking meals for over 120 residents daily. In this role, I followed recipes while maintaining high standards of flavour, food safety, and presentation.
