Mission
EFF's mission is to raise awareness on health & wellness. Miseducation on proper nutrition has led to obesity with Louisiana being ranked 7th in the nation. There's a misconception that eating healthy means you can only eat fruit, boring salads, or tasteless food. Instead of eliminating your favorite food, Chef Kelsey provides healthier, nutrient dense options. Not only will you see a difference in your body when you follow a balanced diet, you can focus better during the day, boost your mood, and sleep better at night.
About Chef Kelsey
Kelsey is a native of Patterson, La. After losing her father at the age of 18 to a heart attack, she made a commitment to provide her family and community with the nutritional knowledge needed to live a healthier life. Her father was diagnosed with diabetes & high blood pressure and with little guidance on how to live with those conditions, his diet didn't change much, which led to his death.
Cooking has always been a passion for Kelsey. While recovering from PTSD after an abusive relationship, the kitchen was her safe space. Once she moved to college, she learned how to make her dollars stretch by meal prepping. After meal prepping for a while, people started to ask if she sold her food. Her response was always no because she didn't think she had a product worth selling.
In March 2020, Kelsey launched her mobile food delivery service, Eat Fuel Fleurish. In the first month, she sold 100 meals and that number continued to rise each month. Eat Fuel Fleurish has been featured on the front page of Daily Advertiser Newspaper, The Acadiana Advocate, and OneAcadiana's Business Spotlight. Chef Kelsey was named 2021 Times of Acadiana Best Chef.
Kelsey earned a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology-Exercise Science and a Master's in Business Administration with a concentration in Entrepreneurship from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. She is also a NASM Certified Sports Nutrition Coach.
When Kelsey isn't cooking, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling to visit friends, exercising, crafting DIYs, mentoring, serving on local boards, feeding those in need and binge-watching series on Netflix.
