I love green smoothies.

I am a passionate home cook, photographer, yogini, and dreamer.

I explore the intersections of health, environment, race, class, and sustainable food on HoneybeeHolistic.info.

I’m obsessed with food.

I help people transform their relationship with vegetables at VegetarianHealthCoach.net

I show community orgs how to add wellness and health promotion to their mission by offering cooking demonstrations, wellness workshops, and planning Community
Wellness Days for their members.

I love making whole foods smoothies, juices, soups, and desserts in my Vita-Mix Whole Foods Machine.

“Melissa” is Greek for Honeybee.

Sometimes I demonstrate the Vita-Mix to show people how easy and delicious
plant-based whole foods meals can be.

I graduated from Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC.

My favorite colors are purple, red, and white.

I’m originally from Brooklyn, NY.

I buy 80% of my food direct from farmers and local purveyors.

Aries, baby!

I recently moved from the city to the country.

I’m happy to be here!
