Growing up as a professional ballerina, Sassy was constantly under-eating and never quite felt energized enough to do her work. An injury caused her to change her mindset on food to use it as FUEL, and she fell in love with creating healthier recipes that gave her sustained energy, strength and they were flavorful, too. At just 16 years old, Sassy launched her first cookbook, a line of limited edition energy bars, and launched Naturally Sassy. Her goal of inspiring and fueling others with delicious recipe ideas has been achieved.
