My name is Maja (pronounced “maya”), and I am deeply passionate about the transformative power of food. I embrace a “no-diet” philosophy, encouraging the enjoyment of favorite foods daily while prioritizing nourishment for both body and soul. I completed the dietetics program at California State University Los Angeles. I also graduated from film school at Columbia College-Hollywood and worked as a stunt performer for several years.
With extensive experience teaching nutrition at the university level and consulting clients with diverse nutritional needs, I specialize in medical nutrition therapy and community nutrition. Moreover, my athletic experience has given me opportunities to explore exercise nutrition, not just for athletes, but for anyone who leads an active life. My mission is to share evidence-based insights on food and nutrition, fostering both knowledge and genuine pleasure in every bite. Additionally, I am a strong advocate for sustainable food practices, including growing one’s own food—a practice I personally enjoy and promote. I am looking forward to helping you set nutrition goals that will add meaningful lifestyle changes to your daily routines.
