I am a Registered Dietitian that has been practicing since 2005. I am licensed in Florida, South Carolina, and Illinois. I am also a certified yoga instructor. I have worked with infants all the way up to senior citizens. I started my career working in a hospital. After leaving the hospital I worked in public health. I was the outpatient dietitian in a children’s hospital. I have also inspected nursing homes for compliance with federal regulations. I currently do consulting work and teach nutrition at a college.
I am a mom of 3 boys and 1 daughter. I live in Florida so I enjoy spending time at the beach as often as I can.
I have always been interested in eating healthier and living a healthier lifestyle. I have worked on trying to make better choices but as with anything in life some days are better than others. I truly believe that what we eat has a huge impact on our health. I believe that medicine is necessary for some conditions but nutrition is also necessary and can help people feel better when medicines aren’t working. It is important to look at the body as a whole. Many things affect our health. How much sleep we get.? What foods are we eating? How much we move throughout the day? Are we hydrated? What is in our environment that we are exposed to everyday? How stressful is our home life or work life? All of these factors and many more can effect our overall health.
