Hi, I’m Sharon

National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Whole Food Plant-Forward Chef Instructor & Creator of Nourished by Nature.

My mission is to help people feel stronger, more energized, and more connected, through a real, shared experience in nature and around real food.

I believe some of the most powerful medicine isn't found in a program or a supplement. It's found in time spent outdoors, a meal made from real ingredients, and the company of people who understand what you're going through. That belief is what led me to create Nourished by Nature: a hands-on, nature-based workshop designed to be experienced together, not followed alone.

I bring over 20 years of leadership experience in global companies, more than 8 years as an executive coach, and training as a chef, together with my board certification in health and wellness coaching. I've spent my career helping people build habits and find clarity that lasts. Now I get to do that work outdoors, at the table, and in community, where I believe it works best.
