Work History

Business Owner and Nutrition Coach

Healthy Happy Eating
10.2019 - Current

Certified by American Fitness Professionals and Associates, I work with individuals and groups to utilize the power of nutrition to help people live more able and healthy lives. At the individual level, I work with clients to identify their specific health issues, discuss the role of nutrition and develop nutritionally sound plans that help them achieve their goals. Additionally, group presentations are available in a variety of settings and are catered to address the specific needs of the group. Past presentations have included topics such as nutrition and energy, nutrition for sleep, how nutrition can be used to counter diabetes, the impact of food on inflammation and nutrition for kids.
