Background

I’m a registered and licensed dietitian with a master’s degree in nutrition and nine years of experience helping people of all ages and populations. From managing chronic conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, and weight management to supporting families with growing children, older adults, and those simply wanting to feel their best, I know how to create strategies that work for real life. My comprehensive background allows me to meet people where they’re at and tailor care to fit their unique circumstances.

I’m inspired by blending an evidence-based approach with compassionate care. I pride myself in my ability to translate complex science and research into simple, practical steps. At the same time, I’m passionate about creating a safe and inclusive space where health can be pursued at any size, without judgment or restriction. In our sessions you can expect more than just advice, I’ll equip you with the tools and knowledge to make realistic, sustainable changes for yourself.

What truly sets me apart from other dietitians is my capacity to make nutrition approachable and fun. Healthy eating should feel exciting, not stressful, rigid, or boring. I will help you rediscover the joy in food and empower you with the confidence to nourish yourself with ease. Together we’ll focus on the changes that are most meaningful to your life so you can enjoy food without guilt and create a lifetime of well-being and balance.

I chose this career because I wanted to help people cut through the confusion of nutrition information and feel empowered to take charge of their own health. My clients often tell me they appreciate my warmth, enthusiasm, and the way I make them feel truly heard and supported. At the heart of my practice is a simple mission: to make nutrition enjoyable and sustainable so my clients can build healthier, more joyful lives.

Approach

"With nearly a decade of experience, I make healthy eating realistic, sustainable, and fun. I empower my clients with the confidence to rediscover the joy in food while also establishing a lifetime of healthy habits. My evidence-based, holistic approach is tailored to each client’s needs and lifestyle. While I’m uniquely able to translate complex nutrition topics into clear guidance that works in the real world, I’m more than a nutrition expert, I’m a trusted partner in all my clients’ journeys."
