Summary

As an outpatient dietitian with over ten years of experience, my passion lies in helping others meet their individual health goals in manageable and sustainable ways. Whether I'm providing nutrition education and counseling to clients looking to improve their clinical health markers or to those struggling with their relationship with food, I strive to help others find the balance of enjoying what they eat as well as using food as fuel to sustain the mind and body for life-long health.
