Sunny is a 2x World Champion in Steak and Live Fire cooking.

Along with being a Food Network Star, Motivational Speaker, numerous awards in BBQ and Grilling, Sunny’s true passion is sharing the joy and healing power of BBQ, grilling, and live fire cooking through teaching & partnering with major organizations such as B&B Charcoal and Operation BBQ Relief to help veterans, first responders and their families overcome PTSD and trauma through BBQ & Grilling. 

After a life altering diagnosis of a brain and spinal malformation along with MS, Sunny went through a major lifestyle transformation losing 80 pounds which ignited a fire inside her to become a certified nutrition coach and personal trainer which helps in her culinary skills and recipe development.
