Background and education Edit

Thomas, whose parents immigrated from Jamaica,[2] was inspired to cook by her mother, who taught her how to cook at the age of five.[3] Thomas began exploring healthier cooking with her family when her father was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2008.[4] In 2009, she started a YouTube channel, Kids Can Cook, with her four-year-old sister Nia.[5]

Thomas attended St. Gregory College Preparatory School,[2] but was later homeschooled.[6] She is the youngest graduate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, trained as a certified integrative nutrition health coach.[7] In September 2016, Thomas moved with her family from Arizona to New York in order to expand her business.[8]

In 2013, Thomas founded The HAPPY Organization, to bring nutrition education to youth through cooking classes, summer camps, and in-school programs.[4][13]

In 2015, Thomas began employment at the Canyon Ranch Institute as a nutrition science assistant.[6]

In 2016, Thomas partnered with the non-profit organization Harlem Grown to provide education in urban farming, sustainability, and nutrition.[8]
