She speaks on various wellness topics for healthy minds and bodies and youth and vitality. Rebecca is a nutrition specialist and consultant for public and charter schools providing curriculum and programming that engages students, staff and the community.

 

​With over 15 years experience in food services and catering, Rebecca combined her nutrition knowledge and love for food hosting educational cooking classes and food demonstrations for corporations and individuals through Celebrevents, LLC.

At 63, her father died of a heart attack due to high blood pressure. Then in 2000, she was diagnosed with a precancerous condition. It was then that she began looking for the connection between nutrition and health. Rebecca adverted a fourth surgery, lost 25 pounds in three months and has committed her life to helping others ever since.
