Chef/Journalist Asata Reid started the food-education sessions of Life Chef to help fill the information gap between what you know you "should" be eating and sometimes confusing dilemma of "how" to eat healthfully. Chef Asata completed her degree in Culinary Arts from the Art Institute of Atlanta in 2000, and has been a professional chef for nearly a decade in some of Atlanta's top-rated restaurants and private homes.

The list of notable restaurants where she has practiced her culinary artistry includes Dish Restaurant, the Food Studio and Nikolai's Roof (both recipients of the AAA Four Diamond Award) and the vegan restaurant, Lush. Asata has also catered through Bold American Catering, and with an upscale staffing company for private estates in Atlanta. As a private chef, Asata specializes in healthful creations, and in the specific dietary needs and wants of her high-end clientele.

She has been a member of the Sevananda Natural Foods Co-Op in Atlanta since 2006, where she also teaches the Natural Food Education Series. Asata leads monthly Life Chef classes at St. Philip AME Church in Atlanta, and is a regular contributor to www.EatLocalAmerica.coop and www.FoodBuzz.com. She also hosts corporate and community cooking demos through a partnership with Kaiser Permanente, and has held cooking demos at the Green Market at Piedmont Park, the East Atlanta Village Farmer’s Market, the National Black Arts Festival and many corporate, government and community establishments including Coca Cola, the Quaker Oats Company, Piedmont National, Henry County Board of Directors, Lovejoy High School, Hillcrest Church of Christ and others.
