Becoming plant-based has been the best decision I have made for myself and my health. Being plant-based has helped my health and my overall mindset tremendously. I have always suffered from bad acne, depression, and candida. Within two months of being vegan/plant-based, my face started to clear up. My attitude and self-esteem was the highest it had ever been. The candida never came back.

People ask me all the time, how can you be Haitian and be vegan? I tell them, health and a love for all beings has no race no ethnicity. I didn’t become vegan for anyone else other than myself. To be honest, it was a challenge considering I had people tell me I wouldn’t last - it was just a phase. However, I’m coming up on my third year of being vegan in February 2018 and I couldn’t be happier. I started my own business Cookin’Kiddos to show kids and their parents you can still enjoy all your favorites but in a more healthy and ethical way!
