HED Program Alumni

Graduates of the Health Educator Program have put their HED experience to use in many ways.  We are very proud of the accomplishments of our alumni and feel that each person who enters the program has unlimited potential. 

Class of Fall 2011

Jacqueline Pascual, Union City, CA
I am starting a raw vegan Mexican delivery service in Las Vegas, NV.

Rosie Tait, Gateshead, UK
I completed the Health Educators course in the Fall of 2011. Since then I have done some further training and I am now in the process of setting up a business called Living High. I hope to offer detox packages in a variety of formats. I am also in the process of arranging a raw food stall at a local farmers market. The Hippocrates Program will form the basis of my detox packages. I have also done some coaching based on the program. In addition I teach yoga and I am a Thai Yoga Massage Therapist.

Marty Hall Landau, Palm Beach, FL
The day I graduated I was hired to be part of the Guest Service Tearn. I worked with Kathryn for almost a year and while I was working at HHI I realized there was a missing piece for the Life Transformation Program. I prepared a business plan, which I shared with Anna Maria and she gave it to Brian. He called me in to his office and I now am managing the salon on campus. I love that I can support the program with the knowledge from the Health Educator Program and all the experience in the Guest Service Department along with my passion of 40 some years in the beauty industry. I am so grateful for this opportunity.

Class of Winter 2012

Alida Lopez Parada, Mexico City, Mexico
I give lectures about enzymes and detox and nutritional programs (consulting). I teach raw food kitchen classes, sell Life Give products from HHI and raw vegan desserts. I am starting to create a Raw Vegan Ice Cream to sell it in super markets, so I can have my own brand of Ice Cream since we don't have that in Mexico in the whole country.

Kent Lawrence, New Hampshire, USA
I am living mostly raw, growing shoots and sprouts and wheatgrass, and teaching community classes at my local library. Then as the topic comes up in conversation I bring up the living plant diet as HHI practices. Aylin Filliba, Santa Monica, California I am living in Santa Monica, after the HED program I started a raw food chef certification in Matthew Kenney's school will be taking the level 2 soon. Currently I am in the process of writing a blog about health and raw food prep. I am also working with someone who has been to HHI, he found me through the institute and it has been great. I am hoping for more customers.

Class of Fall 2012

Cisem Cakir, Turkey
I am now directing Gardens of Babylon's Health Center, setting up anew Raw Food Detox program. I am teaching the chefs the new techniques and how to set up a raw food kitchen. We also have a detox specialist here, and we are working together, she is promoting Master Detox(fasting with liquids). So we offer two different kinds of detox and it is going well so far. Still we need a lot of advertising, which we will be working more on that this year.
