For more than 15 years, I have dedicated my life to helping people transform their health through better nutrition, cooking education, fitness, and community support.
As a vegan chef, celebrity personal trainer, and former MTV Naked Chef, I have worked with people from all walks of life—from senior citizens in the Bronx to college students across New York City—helping them build healthier habits that last.
Too often, people know what they should do, but struggle to stay consistent. Whether it’s stress eating, lack of time, unhealthy routines, or simply not having the right support system, lasting change requires more than information. It requires guidance, accountability, and practical skills.
That’s why I created Get Fit Eat Well.
Our mission is simple: help people learn how to prepare healthy meals, improve their wellness, and develop sustainable habits that lead to long-term transformation.

Bring the Program to Your Church
Churches play an important role in supporting healthy communities.
