Dynamic Speaker

by | Tasteamonials

Michele is a committed professional. Her presentation at the Hawaii Dietetic Association Meeting was the most well rated of the entire program. It connected the local with the world concern for using what we can produce in our local community and be sustainable. She shared recipes, food products and great visuals to make this a dynamic presentation. I would recommend Michele as a dynamic speaker and superior nutrition expert

A Refreshing Perspective

by | Tasteamonials

The philosophy that Michele brings to the Taste Workshop is so unique these days, but it makes so much sense. Why live in a world of deprivation and food rules when there are opportunities for good food that is good for you. I love her philosophy!
