Background
I graduated from Syracuse University, where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Dietetics. I then went on to complete my Dietetic Internship at Hunter College in New York City. I have experience in clinical nutrition, nutrition research, and in nutrition counseling. I specialize in weight management and cardiovascular health.
I believe in a non-diet approach, where we will work together to develop a balanced plate. I am passionate about creating lasting lifestyle changes, rather than suggesting short-term, unsustainable solutions. I am also a huge proponent of goal setting. With motivational interviewing, I can get to know your nutritional concerns, and together we can set realistic, attainable goals. You will be amazed at what you can accomplish!
When I am not counseling clients, I am passionate about baking healthy recipes. I love creating delicious, nourishing desserts where I can both satisfy my sweet tooth and get some added nutrients in. I also love a good strength training workout. I recently moved to Florida so I try to take advantage of the weather by going on frequent walks with my mini Australian labradoodle, Rudy.
