Hi, if we haven't met yet...

I’m Chef Crystal. “With knowledge, anything is possible!” These five words inspire and guide me in my journey as a raw food chef, instructor, and cookbook author. My path to becoming a renowned figure in the plant-based culinary industry has been challenging, incredible, and beautiful.

My career has led me on many exciting adventures, from developing unique plant-based menus for new restaurants to designing and catering health retreats in Canada and Europe. Launching my raw chocolate and dessert business was particularly liberating, allowing me to blend creativity with health-conscious cooking. I firmly believe that learning should be an exciting and never-ending pursuit, and I strive to make this a reality for my students.

With over 13 years of culinary mastery, I specialize in the art of raw cuisine and dessert creation. My extensive experience includes crafting innovative raw food and dessert menus for cafes, developing a diverse array of recipes, and designing comprehensive curricula for raw chef trainings and retreats. In the past five years, I have expanded my expertise into the online teaching space, empowering aspiring chefs and enthusiasts worldwide through interactive and engaging virtual classes. My dedication to culinary excellence and education has established me as a leading authority in the raw food industry, helping families thrive with healthy food alternatives.

I really enjoyed this entire experience. This course gave me so much inspiration to continue forward and do what I do in the plant-based culinary world. It also inspired me to finally write my own cookbook, which I’ve been wanting to do so for a while now, and have finally begun the process. The resources and tutorials Crystal provides are invaluable. Totally worth the investment.
