On March 25, I celebrated my friend Raquel Riggle’s Menopalz proclamation at Reno City Hall—a powerful step for women’s leadership and menopause awareness.

The next day, I graduated in Holistic Culinary Arts. Our paths aligned perfectly: food, healing, and advocacy united. Honored to join Menopalz as their Holistic Culinary Chef and Holistic Global Culinary Advisor.
