"When I was 33 years old, I was diagnosed with stage IV Neuroendocrine Cancer. It is a rare cancer that began in my gastrointestinal tract.

​ I was a young mother of two, feeling fearful and lost. Through research, I concluded that changing my diet would optimize my quality of life. The addition of a plant based diet to my medical plan was essential. ​

I owe the elevation of health and happiness to plant based whole foods and a nutrient dense diet. Four years into my cancer journey, I opened up Green Bar because I truly believe in and fell in love with the benefits of a healthy eating lifestyle and wanted to provide that to others. ​

I feel as though this way of life helped me survive and maintain my strength throughout treatments and surgeries. ​

They say you are what you eat and in order to be strong I had to eat strong. Without the commitment to this healthy lifestyle I would not be where I am today; not just alive but living."
