Hi, I’m Andrea-a culinary-trained holistic chef, recipe developer, and content creator with over 20 years of experience.

  • "I am deeply grateful to Andrea for creating the remarkable collection of recipes that brought my book to life. Her expertise as a holistic recipe developer perfectly aligned with our mission to make anti-inflammatory eating both healing and delicious. Her thoughtful approach to recipe development, rooted in her own experience of finding health through food, has resulted in a collection that makes healing accessible and enjoyable. Her artistic eye and culinary talent have transformed complex nutritional concepts into practical, beautiful dishes that anyone can create."

    -Dr. Josh Redd NMD, MS, MAPHB

  • “Working with Andrea is a dream. She consistently helps bring my vision to life with her delicious recipes, even when working with myriad dietary restrictions and parameters. Her recipes have become a cornerstone of our offerings at the Functional Nutrition Alliance and are, hands-down, the go-to favorites for our customers, clients and even my team! I would recommend Andrea’s recipe development services without hesitation and I’m always eager to work with her every chance I get.”

    -Andrea Nakayama FNLP, MSN, CNC, CNE, CHHC, Founder Functional Nutrition Alliance

  • “There is nothing this team can't do. I came to Eva and Andrea with a project that may have set the record for the shortest turnaround time in the history of publishing. Other teams weren't even willing to entertain the idea of taking on the job. When a friend recommended I reach out to Eva and Andrea, they didn't even blink at the challenge. Not only did they end up producing top-tier work - the book we worked on together is gorgeous - they came to us with the most reasonable budget and beat every deadline along the way. There is no problem they cannot solve. They are unshakeable, unbreakable, and can make even the lumpiest potato look like a prom queen. I can only imagine what they can do with a proper timeline, but I know I won't have to wonder for too long, because I will endeavor to work with them as often as possible. Simply put, Eva and Andrea are amazing!”

    -Gideon Pine Inkwell Management Literary Agency

  • "Andrea completed a lot of excellent work for our team and is a pleasure to work with. She always adhered to our deadlines, was readily available for anything we had for her to work on, and communicated well throughout the course of our time working together."

  • "I hired about 8 different freelancers for a recipe development and photograph project. Although most were pretty good, Andrea rose above the rest with thorough attention to quality recipes and beautiful photos. She also knows the subject matter well. Will definitely be hiring again."
