Summary
Registered Dietitian with experience providing clinical nutrition services in long-term care and skilled nursing settings. My work focuses on supporting residents with complex medical and dietary needs, ensuring that nutrition plans are both clinically appropriate and practical for daily living. I take a detailed, resident-centered approach—reviewing lab values, medical histories, and dietary intake to build plans that promote stability and long-term health. I’ve worked closely with nursing staff, physicians, and dietary teams to maintain compliance with regulatory standards while also improving the overall dining experience for residents. I value consistency, clear communication, and delivering care that makes a measurable difference.
