Meet Our Amazing Team

Lisa Bub - Owner, Chef & Culinary Director

Established in 2018, À La Carte Nutrition was founded by Owner, Chef & Culinary Director Lisa Bub with a simple philosophy: nutritious food should never come at the expense of flavor.

Lisa’s love of cooking began in Warrenton, Virginia, where she grew up watching her grandmother effortlessly bring family together around the table. The care, creativity and love her grandmother poured into every meal became the foundation for Lisa’s own approach to food—creating dishes that nourish people while still making them genuinely excited to eat.

Over the years, Lisa has continued to refine her craft through private instruction with a three-Michelin-star chef and advanced executive culinary courses, combining professional technique with years of hands-on experience developing recipes and cooking for families.

Today, Lisa leads the culinary vision behind À La Carte Nutrition, personally curating the recipes and menus that have made ALC a trusted resource for fresh, thoughtfully prepared meals. From everyday healthy eating and performance-focused nutrition to specialized dietary needs and private chef services, her goal remains the same: to create food that is as delicious as it is purposeful.

When she’s not in the kitchen, Lisa loves traveling and spending time with her husband and two boys.


Laura Pearce - Registered Dietitian

Born in New Orleans, LA and growing up in Katy, TX, Laura was raised with an appreciation for really great food! After high school, she attended Texas A&M University and graduated in 2009 with a B.S. in Nutritional Sciences. After A&M, she matched at Texas Woman's University for her 18 month dietetic internship, and also worked towards a Masters in Nutrition. After graduating with her Masters and passing her Registered Dietician exam in 2011, she began working at Houston Methodist Hospital as a clinical dietitian. She met her husband at Texas A&M and have been married for 11 years. They have 2 adorable boys. As a family, they enjoy traveling, spending time outside, and of course, watching the Aggies and Astros! She is very excited for the opportunity to work as the registered dietitian for ALC as wellness, prevention of disease and educating others on nutrition are professional passions of hers.


Kimberly Whitaker - Culinary Assistant

Kimberly is a native Houstonian and graduate of Texas A&M University and Rice University. Before joining A La Carte Nutrition, she spent over 15 years working in engineering and construction. After “retiring,” she happily shifted her focus to her vegetable garden, baking sourdough bread, rescuing puppies, and spending time with her husband and two children.

Before becoming part of the team, Kimberly was a customer herself. As a busy mom, she understands firsthand the value of having healthy, reliable meals ready to go — an invaluable alternative to the fast-food drive-thru.

As a Culinary Assistant, Kimberly supports marketing and administrative coordination, and client support. Kimberly is committed to delivering a client experience that feels attentive and seamless.
