Hi, I'm Rama — a passionate cook and creative culinary artist with a deep love for vegan cuisine. After spending over 20 years in the IT industry, I found myself drawn back to the kitchen, where my heart truly belongs. Cooking has always been more than a hobby — it's my calling. Over the years, I've honed the art of transforming simple, plant-based ingredients into flavorful, satisfying dishes that appeal to everyone — even the most devoted non-vegans. 

My story:

Growing up vegetarian in India, I believed animals naturally gave us what we needed — cows gave milk, hens laid eggs, and leather came from animals who had already died. That belief was shattered the day I watched the documentary Dominion. What I saw was beyond anything I could have imagined — the cruelty, the fear, the unimaginable suffering endured by animals in factory farms. It was a wake-up call. After that, going vegan wasn't just a choice — it felt like the only ethical path forward. I've been living a vegan life for over a decade, and I’ve never looked back. 

My purpose:

I realized long ago that living solely for myself and my family wouldn’t truly fulfill me. Being born human is a privilege — a blessing that comes with incredible potential. Guided by compassion, a deep love for animals, and a passion for cooking, I combined my skills to create something meaningful: Green Plate Co. LLC — a venture dedicated to serving delicious, plant-based food that makes a difference.

Many people think veganism is just a diet — but it's so much more than that. It's a lifestyle rooted in compassion, sustainability, and conscious living. Like many other vegan companies, we’re on a mission to raise awareness about the powerful benefits of a plant-based way of life. By choosing cruelty-free options, you’re not only making a healthier choice for yourself — you're also standing up for animals and protecting our planet. Join us in creating a kinder, healthier world — one plate at a time.
