Amanda Archibald, RD is Founder and Owner of The Genomic Kitchen. She has dedicated her career to translating the complexities of nutrition science to the kitchen.

As an early adopter of Nutrigenomics ( how food interacts with our genes) and Nutrigenetics, Amanda introduced the concept of Culinary Genomics to the world in 2015. Culinary Genomics bridges genomics, nutrition science and the culinary arts and is transforming the food conversation for the public, clinicians and chefs. Amanda’s work has been featured around the world and is used by clinicians on four continents.

Chef Kate Waters, NT trained at the Ballymaloe Cookery School in Ireland. Kate first worked in restaurants, then directors’ dining rooms in London, as well as for event companies, before becoming a personal chef in various private houses in London. Realizing that food is at the root of all health, Kate enrolled at the College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM) in London, graduating with a Diploma in Nutritional Therapy in 2014. Immediately following this, she started teaching the ‘Cooking for Health’ course at CNM and also trained in their Traditional Chinese Medicine Nutrition Diploma course, to combine Eastern and Western influences and bring in the energetics of food into her consultations and cooking. Kate taught and wrote lesson plans for CNM for their 'Natural Chef' course, which was the first of its kind in the country.
