What are a couple of staple food items at your home?

I always have veganaise, Braggs liquid aminos, and apple cider vinegar. These three items are so versatile when cooking. I’ll admit my hubby does most of the cooking in our house, but these are essentials!  

Do you take any supplements?  

I’m a big believer in 3 supplements: a quality multivitamin, a probiotic, and an omega-3 supplement. I have found that when I take these 3 consistently I can keep my stress levels at bay!

What keeps you active?  Do you have an exercise routine?

I love being active and am currently training for a full marathon in September so I’m doing A LOT of running, but I also love hot yoga, barre workouts, and bike rides with the family!

What inspires you outside of work?

Spending time with my family is simply the best! I enjoy helping out at my son’s school and I have also become active in our neighborhood association events committee.

Who was your favorite band in high school?

Dave Matthews Band...omg...

What are your favorite body care items?

I love Evan Healy products for skin care. Their products are all about replenishing the skin’s natural balance of oil and water and that’s it! No icky ingredients!!

What's your go-to fast and easy healthy meal when you're in a rush?

A big salad! I just throw whatever veggies I have and add something crunchy along with oil and apple cider vinegar dressing.

Many Clover's employees have been with Clover's for a long time.  Why do you think that is?

I think it goes back to the feeling that Clovers is a family, a team, and that we all pitch in and do whatever is needed to help customers or make the store run.

Tea or coffee?

Coffee all the way!

Do you have any guilty pleasures? 

Dark beer & Booches burgers-preferably together!

Is there a particular area of health that you feel especially knowledgeable in?

Omega-3’s or probiotics-we get a lot of questions about these! I’ve also become a bit of an expert in hydration since starting my marathon training.

What is your personal philosophy on health?

You have to be responsible for your own health! Food truly is medicine and healthy food doesn’t have to taste bad to be delicious! Oh, and drink lots of water!

Do you have a pet(s)?

I have a 10 year old pug, Shelby.
