Kristen Michaelis

Kristen Michaelis CNC has been a Health and Nutrition Educator since 2008. Her author website is https://www.foodrenegade.com, and she's a passionate advocate for REAL FOOD -- food that's sustainable, organic, local, and traditionally-prepared according to the wisdom of our ancestors. She earned a Bachelor of Arts (summa cum laude) from Dallas Baptist University in Philosophy and Biblical Studies, then began her post-graduate journey as a researcher in the fields of health and nutrition. While she adores hats & happy skirts, nothing inspires her quite like geeking out over nutrition & sustainable agriculture. Living just outside of Austin, Texas, Kristen is blessed with three brilliant young children. She enjoys taking walks at dusk, curling up with a good book, getting foot massages, and playing in the rain. She also has an affection for Australian Shiraz wines. Kristen teaches two online courses in Nutrition and speaks at conferences and other events. She also blogs at Food Renegade. Endlessly.
