I have been a Registered Dietitian since 2006. My current credentials are: Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RD/RDN), Licensed Dietitian (LD), Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC), Certified Specialist in Pediatric Critical Care (CSPCC), CPR/Heart-saver. I also have a degree in Culinary Arts with a prior background as a Chef. My passion for food is what paved the way to my true passion of food science and nutrition. I have a well-rounded experience in all age groups: preterm infants/Neonates, Infants/Children, Adolescents, Teenagers, Young Adults, Adults, and the Elderly with my primary focus on all infants and children. I have helped countless patients and families struggling with nutritional issues in a hospital setting in nearly all disease states for about 20 years now and I want to extend that help to all other people in whatever setting they are currently in. My hobbies include: hiking, biking, volleyball, baseball, pickle ball, and leading and participating in free small work-out groups around my community for 45-60 minutes each morning. I have a wonderful family of my own and understand the challenges that children may bring to the table (literally and figuratively).
