Background

I am a Registered Dietitian, ACSM Personal Trainer and RRCA Run coach. I enjoy working with all types of motivated clients. I guide clients through a process of identifying/solidifying the outcome that they want related to their nutrition and wellness goals and I work with them to set smart goals (sustainable, measurable, achievable, realistic, timely). I help my clients feel empowered to make the changes they want by helping them build a plan that works for them! I have had the opportunity to gain experience in a wide variety of nutrition/health settings including Clinical Nutrition, Public Health, Fitness/Personal Training, Food Service Management, Health and Wellness Consulting, as well as Behavioral Health. I am comfortable working with all types of clients from adults to pediatrics and love to work with recreational athletes to fuel their best performance. I also am very comfortable working with medical diets, allergies or eating disorders. I am happy to help you find the solutions to your nutrition and wellness needs. Running, weight-lifting, spending time with my family and eating good food are my favorite hobbies. I have completed 3 Boston Marathons. I am passionate about being healthy and feeling my best in all aspects of life. I believe exercise and nutrition play an extremely important role in mental health as well as physical. I am fascinated by this connection and love to share this passion with others and help them find a sustainable way to meet their health and wellness goals within a busy schedule. I wasn’t always this way. I decided when I was 24, that I didn’t want to “get fit” but instead I was going to “be fit.” From that point on I made a few small changes and stuck with them. I now have 3 kids and keep a busy schedule and I have a ton of tricks to keep it simple and sustainable! The truth is I don’t like to feel deprived, so I never go a day without chocolate! Nutrition and health is a puzzle. You get to piece it together to find a way to build what you need and want in relation to your life and health while fueling your body to function and perform at its absolute best.
