ABOUT ME
This past year I decided to dedicate my life to serving the Greater Lansing Area through health and spiritual services. I was able to achieve this by joining a program run by the Lansing SDA Church, called the CROSSTrainer Program. In this program I was able to learn and apply principles of nutrition, exercise, lifestyle and spirituality through the services listed below in the "experience" section of this website.
I decided to join the CROSSTrainer program because I believe deeply in the value of health, spirituality, and social connection. I wanted to work side by side with those in the community and see them conquer their goals. My time in Lansing has been immensely successful and impactful as I have been able to see many lives changed for the better. Explore my portfolio to see the practical things I learned and did during this year, and feel free to get in touch with any questions.

EXPERIENCE
What I’ve Done
CULINARY STARTER KITS
With Culinary Starter Kits I was able to come into people's homes and practically teach them how to make plant-based recipes while sharing the health benefits of them.
COOKING SCHOOLS
Through monthly cooking schools I was able to practice numerous plant-based cooking demonstrations, cook recipes for samples, and even plan/facilitate one cooking school.
NEIGHBORHOOD COOKING PARTIES
A Neighborhood Cooking Party is the same concept as a cooking school expect it is located in a church members home and marketed to the local neighborhood. I was able to participate, demonstrate plant-based recipes, and plan my own neighborhood cooking party.
HEALTH COACHING
With health coaching I was able to walk clients step by step through the health principles found in the book entitled Habits that Heal. Through the use of study guides and mentorship I was able to guide them in making and tracking specific weekly health goals.
FITNESS COACHING
Through fitness coaching I had the opportunity to conduct health/fitness assessments, lead consultations, and follow-up with individuals on their fitness journey.
LIFESTYLE AND DISEASE REVERSAL PROGRAMS
With the Renove Disease Reversal Program I was able to work with participants for 6 weeks, sitting through health lectures, aiding in the instruction of practical health skills, doing cooking demonstrations and coming to participants homes to teach them how to cook plant-based recipes. This was all done while working alongside a team of doctors, pastors, fitness trainers, and other Crosstrainers for optimum mentorship and collaboration.
HYDROTHERAPY
I had the opportunity to go through a course on hydro therapy and apply this method of healing to friends and patients of a local, affiliated clinic.
BIBLE STUDIES
I was able to gain experience in preparing Bible studies, gaining Bible study contacts through surveying, and giving Bible studies to community members. It was a privilege to see each person make weekly decisions in their spiritual journey and integrate into the Lansing Church family.
COLPORTEURING
Through the canvassing program I was able to grow my communication skills and gain leads for health and spiritual services. In this program I went door to door offering Christian literature on donation basis and through this was also able to fund myself through the program.
SMALL GROUPS
Through small groups I was able to learn how to revive a church using this method, the practical steps to getting small study groups off the ground, and how it fits into the larger picture of a church.
