Raised on a typical American diet of meat, dairy, and eggs, Colleen Patrick-Goudreau was shocked by what she learned when she read Diet for a New America at age nineteen. No longer able to justify eating animals and their products, Colleen began a journey of discovery that continues to this day. Determined to raise awareness about animal suffering, she founded Compassionate Cooks to be a voice for the more than 45 billion land and sea animals killed every year in the United States for human consumption. Her work is dedicated to them.

Having earned a master's degree in English literature, Colleen uses her writing and communication skills to raise consciousness of the animal issues about which so many people are unaware. A sought-after and inspiring public speaker on the spiritual, social, and practical aspects of a vegan lifestyle, Colleen has appeared on the Food Network, is a columnist for VegNews Magazine, and is a contributor to National Public Radio. She is grateful to have the opportunity to witness transformations taking place in people as they gain the tools and resources they need to reflect their values in their daily choices. compassionatecooks.com
