Background

As a dietitian of thirteen years working in various settings, I strongly believe that we are the professional that bridges the gap between the science in the literature, and the human in front of us. I've been able to practice nutrition care in hospitals, clinics, student health centers, as a mentor for high school students, and via the written word. I've also pursued special certifications such as the CNSC (Certified Nutrition Support Clinician) and am about to test for the CDCES (Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist). I guess I like to learn! I currently specialize in treating disordered eating/HAES, but am also confident in vegan and vegetarian/plant-based nutrition guidance, sports nutrition, diabetes management, and general health. As a queer-identified individual, I love to work with members of my community and recognize the particular challenges we face in regards to health.

Jane completely changed how I think about food. She’s patient, knowledgeable, and explains things in a way that actually makes sense.
