Embark on a transformative journey with me where you will learn to make sustainable changes that last a lifetime. Together, we'll break free from the cycle of restrictive dieting and work towards healing your relationship with food and your body. Our goal is not just about personal transformation; it's about setting a positive example and teaching our families and children to embrace a healthier, more balanced approach to nutrition. In our sessions, you'll gain the tools and knowledge to nourish both your own well-being and that of your loved ones, fostering a legacy of health and mindfulness.
My practice holds a strong focus on fertility, pediatric nutrition, weight management, prenatal and postpartum support and recovery, diabetes treatment for all ages, and gestational diabetes management. With a comprehensive understanding of pregnancy nutrition, I guide expectant mothers through creating optimal meal plans to support the health of both mother and baby and prepare for the best possible birth experience. My expertise also extends to managing Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in both pediatric and adult patients. Whether you're a mother looking for family nutrition advice or seeking support for specific health conditions, my practice is equipped to guide you.
With nearly a decade of experience as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), my career is built on a solid foundation of academic and practical knowledge. I am also a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES), a role I have embraced for the past four years, enhancing my ability to support clients with diabetes. I received my Bachelor of Science from the University of Arizona in 2013 and my Master of Science in Human Nutrition from the University of Alabama in 2021. My global perspective is shaped by my Peace Corps service in Zambia, Africa, where I worked in Maternal and Child Health, Malaria, and HIV/AIDS for three years.
As a professional dedicated to nutrition and as a mother of two, I blend practical experience with empathy in my approach. Nutrition therapy is never a one-size-fits-all solution; it's a personalized path we navigate together, adapting to the unique challenges and joys that accompany parenting and personal health.
When not immersed in the world of nutrition, you'll find me enjoying the great outdoors with my family, savoring the adventure of trying new and exotic foods, and cherishing quality time with my circle of mom friends. These experiences not only enrich my personal life but also reinforce my belief in the importance of balance and community in our journey towards health and happiness.
My passion for nutrition and the positive impact it can have on the special moments in life, especially during parenthood, inspired me to become an RDN and establish a private practice. Specializing in areas such as postpartum support and recovery, diabetes, PCOS, and pregnancy nutrition, I am committed to this rewarding field as I witness the life-changing impact of mindful eating.
Embark on this journey with me. With a blend of professional expertise and personal insight, I am dedicated to guiding you towards a healthier, happier lifestyle for you and your loved ones.
