Background

Credentials

I'm a Registered Dietitian with over 20 years of experience, holding a Master's degree in Dietetics with an emphasis in Sports Nutrition. As a Board-Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics (CSSD), everything I do is grounded in evidence-based science — not trends, not shortcuts. I specialize in helping clients manage chronic conditions including metabolic syndrome, obesity, hypertension, eating disorders, and complex GI issues such as SIBO, IBS, and IBD. My approach is comprehensive — I review your labs, provide targeted supplement recommendations, and offer nutrigenetic testing to understand how your unique biology affects your nutrition needs. No stone is left unturned. These cases require patience, precision, and a willingness to troubleshoot over time — which is exactly the kind of work I love most. My services are often covered under preventive and chronic disease management benefits through private and employer-sponsored insurance plans.

Expectations

When you work with me, you can expect a long-term partnership — not a quick fix. I am extremely thorough: we'll look at your full picture — labs, genetics, lifestyle, history — and leave nothing on the table in getting you to feel your absolute best. Real, lasting change takes time and consistency, and the clients I'm most proud of are the ones who committed to showing up week after week, even when progress felt slow. I'll meet you exactly where you are, celebrate every win along the way, and help you see setbacks as part of the process rather than a reason to quit. You'll feel heard, supported, and equipped with practical strategies that actually fit your life. If you're ready to do the work over months — not just weeks — I'm here for every step of it.

Get to Know Me

Outside of work, I'm a busy mom, former professional mountain biker, and classical violinist. I love hiking with my kids and spending time in nature. That background in competitive sport shaped how I think about health — progress isn't linear, consistency beats perfection, and showing up on hard days matters more than the easy ones. I bring that same mindset to my clients, whether they're managing a chronic condition, working through complex GI issues, or simply trying to feel more vibrant and alive.

Drive

I became a dietitian because I've seen firsthand — in sport and in life — what it looks like when someone truly commits to their health over the long haul. I built this practice for people who are done with quick fixes and ready to make changes that actually last. Complex cases like SIBO have become some of my most meaningful work — not because they're easy, but because they require the kind of sustained, detective-style collaboration that I find most rewarding. I'm not here for the short game. I'm committed to walking alongside my clients for as long as it takes, leaving no stone unturned — from labs to nutrigenetics to targeted supplementation — until you feel your absolute best.

Approach

My approach is comprehensive and personal — I review your labs, health history, genetics, and lifestyle before we talk food. I use nutrigenetic testing, lab review, and targeted supplements to get to the root cause, not just manage symptoms. I specialize in chronic conditions, eating disorders, and complex GI issues like SIBO, IBS, and IBD. I collaborate closely with your physicians so nothing falls through the cracks. I'm not here to hand you a meal plan — I'm here to be your long-term partner.
