Chef Araminta David is a Colorado native and a graduate of Johnson & Wales University where she earned dual degrees in Culinary Arts and Nutrition.  Since 2003, she has pursued a passion for the artistry of beautiful and natural ingredients balanced together. Honing her skills and food knowledge from travel,  various restaurants, catering companies, gourmet markets, and current position as a personal/private chef, she understands the importance of food as both pleasure and nourishment.  

In addition to her culinary skills, Araminta is also a nutrition graduate and is continually learning in this infinite field.  Striving to make food and cooking exciting to those who feel burdened by restriction is a major inspiration for her.

As a strong believer of “food as medicine” and the overall functionality of food, she thrives on seasonal, fresh, high quality, and environmentally conscious ingredients which defines her specialty cooking style of contemporary global vegetarian cuisine.

Araminta has been featured with culinary accolades in Vegetarian Times Magazine, the Rocky Mountain News, and The Eagle’s View.
