Christy Halvorson Ross, CHC, CRFE, Founder, Little Green

Christy is a holistic Health Coach, certified through the Association of Drugless Practitioners. She completed certification in Nutrition and Healthy Living at Cornell University (2019) and Integrative Oncology certification at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona (2020). Her initial training is from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC (2012) and The Raw Food Institute (2012). She is a self-taught, enthusiastic and experimental chef, recipe developer, and food photographer.

Her journey into the world of nutrition is a personal one. In 2007 she began helping her mom through what would be an 8-year battle with cancer, and knows that the nutritional choices they made for her mom, and the green juice that she drank daily, added years onto her life. She has been preoccupied with cancer and nutrition research for the last 13+ years, and strongly believes nutrition can change the course of your health for the better, starting today. 

Her company Little Green has led more than 1,500 people through her online cleanse programs over the last eight years, and she’s excited to share this healthy way of eating with you and your family and friends. Thank you so much for coming to Little Green!
