I run Oven Hug from our home in Menlo Park, California.
My folks and my in-laws are where it all began for us. They were the pioneers that brought us here from Iran almost 50 years ago! I am beyond grateful they did.
Family first!
Family is everything to me. I'm blessed with a partner who is my best friend. He has always been supportive of my various vocations, especially this one that involves tasting and eating!
Our teenage daughters are a big part of this journey to be a good role model for healthy living. My brother and sisters-in-law are the best out there full of fun and love.
Finally, that brings me to our pups! We treat our fur babies like our real kids. We like to walk to the park and take them on daily adventures.
Beyond OvenHug I love to dance, strengthen, and stretch my body. I have an amazing community of friends. I'm blessed with a job that doesn't feel like work. Working as a nutritionist and a coach alongside families has helped me grow in countless ways.
Thanks for joining our family!
Lets embrace healthy habits one loving dish at a time.
With each recipe I send you a big healthy hug in hopes you will eat, eat well, and eat to your heart’s content, remember your roots, and enjoy every bite!
