Sabrina was honored with the Silver Knight Award from the Miami Herald for creating Heart Lights, an initiative based on fashion shows by high school students that generate funds to feed the homeless in Miami-Dade County.

Sabrina was born in Hialeah, Florida, where her parents moved after emigrating from Cuba in search of freedom. She grew up watching her mother cook daily the dishes she sold at a homemade food restaurant. However, her relationship with food was not always healthy, and for much of her adolescence, she had to deal with overweight issues, which brought her closer to another of her great passions: fashion.

Sabrina earned a degree in Fashion Design and Marketing from the International Fine Arts College in Miami. She had a successful career in that industry in Washington, D.C., working with renowned designers such as Oscar de la Renta. However, topics of nutrition and holistic wellness continued to capture her attention, as she had personally experienced a radical transformation through dietary changes and exercise.

Her desire to learn more about how to stay healthy and lose weight led her back to university to obtain her degree in nutrition and dietetics. She traded costume design for cutting-edge meal plans and nutritional supplements, firmly believing that everyone should care more about their inner design—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. “What you wear matters sometimes, but what you eat always matters,” she notes.
