Rosebud has been inspired by the field of health and prevention since she was young. Her path has led her to the study of nutrition and holistic health. She holds a Masters Degree in Public Health & Nutrition and is a Registered Dietitian.
Realizing the up rising of chronic diseases epidemic, Rosebud had shifted her energy in education of lifestyle changes and healthy living.

Rosebud received her training from Loma Linda University in Southern Califorina. “To Make Man Whole” is the motto of the University, so is hers. Her practice emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary arts and sciences with wholistic nutrition and lifestyle practice. “Just as each one of us is part of an interrelated whole of family and community, so is every other elements in nature and in our enviroment.” Rosebud believes whole foods play an intricate part of our lives. As we consume whole foods, we allow the micro and macronutrients to work for us optimizing health and vitality.
With her Bachelors degree in Biology and Psychology together, she formulated concepts from biochemistry/food science and human behaviors/cultures to a new understanding of how food and mind affects health. Her values of human creativity, diversity, and individual choice make her nutrition consultation and cooking classes authentic, unique and fun!!!!! A large part of Rosebud’s fervor for cooking is interacting with people. “How we can all enjoy the pleasure of stress-free and guilt-free cooking while creating great tasting healthy dishes.”
Her cooking is interwoven with eastern Chinese and western medicine that enhances the immune system and works synergistically with the organs of our body. “Let your food be your medicine and let your medicine be delicious.” Her cooking is specialized in authentic ethnic cuisine, focusing on Asian and whole food recipes. She provides health/nutrition lectures, grocery tours, cooking classes and lifestyle counseling through out California, and other areas such as New York, Arizona, Hawaii, Canada, Hong Kong, China, Nepal, Malaysia, India, Philippines, and Oklahoma.

“God would have us learn lessons from the water-lily that opens its pure white blossoms upon the bosom of the lake. The flower reposes in spotless loveliness while all around it, in the water, may be unseemly and obnoxious things. The lily strikes its roots deeper and still deeper into the rich soil far beneath the surface of the lake, and, refusing everything that would taint and pollute its purity, draws to itself only those properties that will aid its development into a spotless and beautiful flower.” {BEcho, April 1, 1889 par. 7}
