I was taught how to cook and bake a little bit at a very young age by my mother, but it was something that I never took the time to continue improving as I grew up. I ended up taking the route of simple and bland foods that only required a microwave that eventually became unpleasant and boring. By my first marriage I was lucky to have a chef as a husband, someone who loves to cook and does and amazing job at it. I really reaped the benefits of various, healthy ethnical foods, as well as plating skills. I never thought in a thousand years that I would have learned so much from him to be able to cook for myself and have a wonderful opportunity by making a book that I can also incorporate it into my current, demanding lifestyle as a health enthusiast, fitness competitor, certified Personal Trainer, and to help all individuals looking to make an improvement in their diet.
My interests have always been in aviation, from earning my degree in the industry, learning how to fly, to becoming an Air Traffic Controller, and a whole slue of aviation jobs throughout my career. My knowledge in fitness was very limited as I only took up cross-country as a sport in high school that I maintained as a consistent hobby for almost 20 years up until my early thirties when I joined the military. The military mandates regulated physical fitness that also included running so life was not so hard in regards to activity. However, it was not until I finished serving that I chose to switch careers from aviation to fitness. I wanted to be professionally recognized and certified and American Council on Exercise (ACE) is a reputable institution to continue my education that fit my needs. It not only teaches how to improve the needs of individuals that are elderly, previously injured, victims of diseases, the de-conditioned, and course the general population who just wants to get into better shape, but educates and coaches in diet and nutrition.
Like aviation, or any other job, there are lots of different angles, methods, and experiences in fitness which include cooking and eating. Eating is something we all enjoy, it’s a social experience, it’s comforting, and of course, re-energizing. At this point in modern society, we are lucky we do not have to hunt for our food and fend for ourselves like in the beginning of time. Food is now readily available in an unimaginable variety of choices. The downfall to food being readily available along with larger portions is that people tend to eat more and in an unhealthy fashion which is how many lose sight and track of their health.
The best part is, is that I never went to culinary school, I did not make these dishes in a gourmet kitchen or using gourmet tools, and I did not spend countless hours making each recipe. I simply wanted a change in my life and took what I had at-hand and made the best that I could out of it. I am passing down to you my ideas and personal learning experience that will hopefully impact your decision making as well as help you believe that positive change in your health will benefit your mind and body! One of my favorite quotes I’ve read and lived by is Never say anything is impossible, because the word itself says
I’m Possible!"

I love you!
