Chef Sandra Lewis

Chef Sandra Lewis, CCMP, is the founder of Life At The Table, a virtual culinary school where food, wellness, and inspiration meet. A certified Culinary Medicine Professional, she bridges the art of cooking with the science of nutrition to help people make healthier food choices every day. Through her corporate wellness programs and engaging cooking classes, Sandra connects what’s on the plate to how we live, work, and thrive.

A classically trained chef, she earned her AAS with honors in Culinary Arts from Le Cordon Bleu Dallas after a 20+ year career in corporate America.

Before Culinary School

Previously, while working and raising two daughters as a single mom, Sandra made nightly home-cooked suppers shared around the home dining table a non-negotiable ritual, no matter how busy life became. That rhythm of cooking and connection instilled a deep belief that sharing meals is the foundation for health, fuels resilience, and creates community—a belief that now drives her mission to inspire people to rediscover the joy of cooking and gathering at the table.

In 2009, she sold her house, packed everything into storage, and pursued her lifelong dream of culinary school.

Today

Sandra partners with organizations to improve employee health and wellness through interactive cooking classes rooted in evidence-based nutrition and create community in the workplace with fun, high-energy culinary team building events. More than 15,000 people have participated in her programs.

She also serves as an adjunct culinary instructor at Dallas College.
