The Magic of Meal Prep

After a career in healthcare as a surgical Physician Assistant, Loraine has

spent years developing her culinary skills through the lens of health and

sensibility. In 2022, after completing her Capstone on “Wellness” she

graduated with her masters from Vanderbilt University. Loraine has since

completed the Chef coaching program at Harvard University, and has

begun her specialty training in Culinary Medicine. In the Spring of 2024,

she plans to begin the Health and Wellness coaching program at

Vanderbilt.

Her research, combined with motherhood has made her acutely aware of

the tremendous role our dietary habits have on our health or the lack

thereof. As fewer people have the skills and knowledge to prepare healthy

meals at home, their dependence on processed food and prepared meals

rises. The result being a sicker population with diminishing life and health

spans.

To address this, Allora home cooking launched this Fall with an

educational and skill building website and, in person instruction offered in

the format of community outreach. Online culinary coaching will begin in

2024.
