About Me
I didn’t grow up loving vegetables or having a garden in my backyard. Actually, until after college I barely ate vegetables. My diet was mostly processed foods and full of sugar. I started to make changes in the way I ate and the way I lived. Change wasn’t easy, however. It took time to figure it out, but I did it. I learned a lot, and found ways to make change happen.
This is how I help my clients today, teaching everything I’ve learned throughout my journey. I help teach you the skills you need to help with your health struggles. And help you learn how to make change happen, through small and simple practices. For real change that lasts.
If I can do it, anyone can, even for the most stubborn and resistant of us. My goal is to help you realize this and give you the tools you need on your health journey. If you suffer from digestives issues, mood issues, low energy, stress, have seemingly unrelated symptoms that others can’t quite figure out, or are overwhelmed by where to start, I am here to support you.

My Philosophy
- I believe in a personalized approach to nutrition using evidence-based research - each of us are unique individuals with unique needs, and your nutrition plan should reflect this. Through personalized guidance, I make reaching your goals easy and set you up for long-term success.
- I believe in an integrative approach to wellbeing that looks at all aspects of your life, including physical activity, stress, sleep, environmental influences, and other lifestyle factors, along with diet - I look at root cause of your health struggles, so that we can figure out what got you here and how to move forward.
- I believe in finding a practical, effective and sustainable plan to help you reach your health and wellness goals - sustainable change without stress.
-
I believe in kindness and compassion - I meet you where you’re at in your journey and work with you. No one knows your body or experience better than you, and that's why I take time to understand what is going on.
