Jessica Hallenbeck, Chef

Jessica is a Registered Nurse who is on a mission to increase awareness of the practice of disease prevention, management, and reversal with diet. She hopes to make an impact in the movement that will shift the focus of healthcare away from symptom treatment. 
 
Jessica watched her grandparents suffer from the effects of heart disease and diabetes and grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of emphasis on health promotion and nutrition as a form of treatment. She spent 5 years working as a staff RN and identified that patients need nutritional counseling and support beyond what she can provide in the hospital setting. This frustration led to a role as a health coach where she provides individualized support and accountability-- two critical factors that influence the success of a lifestyle change.

Jessica loves to experiment in the kitchen and is excited to share her whole food plant based creations!
