Since arriving in England a little over a month ago, I’ve accomplished quite a bit. I’ve gotten over my jet lag, learned how to drive (at least as well as I do in the US, so take that with a pinch of salt), and applied for quite a few jobs and internships. While I’m confident I’ll find employment quickly, I wanted to turn my attention to something meaningful in the meantime. I decided to start a semi-professional website where I can compose and post articles of importance to me, and hopefully to all of you. I have a lot of thoughts, observations, and quandaries rattling around my brain, so this should be entertaining at the least.

I see so many conflicting health-related news articles through the media, Facebook, et cetera, that I feel confused half the time, and I know what to look out for. I hope that by doing my own research, I can assay some of these conflicting reports, and perhaps bring to your attention something that maybe you hadn’t thought about before. I promise to be as transparent as possible, and always cite my sources. As always, the foundation of my passion for nutrition and health lays with cancer and preventable medicine, and the focus of this website will reflect that.

Finally, I aspire to inspire (say that 10 times fast) all of you to make “healthier” choices. Whether it be trying out a new recipe or walking in place rather than sitting while watching The Walking Dead, small changes can add up to something big. This is my attempt to better myself and my family.

Thanks for coming on this journey with me!
