It was such a surprise to see my face on the cover of IMPACT Magazine! They never told me I'd be on the cover! But I did know they were in the middle of compiling a list of Canada's Top Vegan Influencers. There's some incredible people on this list and it's so exciting to see more and more people getting turned on to the vegan lifestyle because of the internet. Like I always say, vegan takeover is in full effect.
Thanks to IMPACT Magazine for doing this feature and highlighting some really great content creators, authors, and entrepreneurs, athletes, and more. Check out the full list here.
The magazine is also FREE so you might see it when you're walking around the city or you can download your FREE digital edition here.

No compromise on taste, no weird ingredients, just damn good food.
