Black Women for Wellness: Kitchen Divas

Chef Nowel is a vegan culinary artist and author from Compton, California. After being diagnosed with Lupus in 2010, she adjusted to a plant-based lifestyle and, after two years, received the MOST ideal results!

She is the author of “Throw Some Greens on that Sh*t” and “So You’re Interested in Giving Up Meat.” She is also certified to provide holistic nutrition to others. Her mission is two-fold: to educate others on how to self-care through both food shopping and preparation and to show that plant-based eating can be cool, tasty, and fun! The avid vocalist enjoys singing in her spare time (and all times in between).

The Compton native received her Bachelor of Science from Central State University. She is also the winner of two Vegan Foodie Choice Awards in both Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio.
