Bailey Ruskus Biography

Bailey Ruskus, also known as Chef Bai, is a seasoned chef, holistic nutritionist, and health coach. Classically trained at Le Cordon Bleu in San Francisco, she uses her culinary expertise to create rich flavors with clean, nourishing ingredients.

She advocates for people with chronic health ailments, animal welfare, and the environment. Her own plant-based journey started with her desire to heal her chronic pain from an 18-year battle with endometriosis after exhausting all other options. She furthered her studies with a certification in plant-based nutrition from T. Colin Campbell, Center for Nutrition Studies, and is a certified Health Coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

Ruskus now develops recipes for brands and works one-on-one with individuals and families looking to heal through food. She helps people heal from chronic illness every day through good food, food knowledge, and a healthy mindset.

She also hosts “The Chef Bai Podcast,” a series of short, sweet, snackable episodes in which she shares her thoughts, feelings, and insights about women’s health, current events, clean eating, and her life as an entrepreneur, wife, and dog mom.

Ruskus released her first cookbook, "Cook. Heal. Go Vegan!" It has over 70 recipes to kickstart your plant-based journey and became a #1 Amazon best-seller in 2021. Ruskus lives in San Diego, California, with her husband, Steve, and their pups, Coconut & Piña.
