“Working with Elena has helped me completely redefine my relationship with food. She has guided and empowered me into making changes to my habits and my lifestyle that go beyond of what I eat; I’ve made these changes not because I have to but because I choose to and because it makes so much sense!  
Her secret power: a ton of empathy backed with deep knowledge, care and a passion for what she does. You won’t be overwhelmed measuring food or dealing with crazy restrictions; her motto: ‘food is information’ and once you truly understand what that means you simply become aware of what you put in your mouth.

If you’re lucky, you’ll get a chance to work with Elena, if Michelin gave stars for chefs that become health coaches, she’d be on that A list.”

“Elena was kind, patient, supportive and knowledgeable. Being a fellow Harlem working mom, she also understood the challenges of having little to no downtime while trying to incorporate lifestyle diet changes. She'd always made herself available and even helped me plan for a work trip to ensure I could find things to eat despite being away from my kitchen and routines.

I have great brand recommendations and am not fooled by mislabeling. My body now craves greens and protein instead of sugar and carbs. I've learned so much from Elena and feel confident that I can now maintain my new relationship with food.”

“It is not easy to come along with someone that knows nutrition and has the intuition to understand the lifestyle of her clients. Elena has the patience to walk you through new and exciting ways to improve your health and better your eating habits. I was given practical tools and delicious, easy-to-make recipes at home. All of these new habits allow me to achieve my health goals. Many thanks, Elena, for sharing your knowledge with me.”
