A Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with a love for people and delicious food. Some of my favorite things include dark chocolate, a cup of coffee, growing veggies in my garden, and newly… raising chickens! My mission is to help translate the science behind nutrition into simple and sustainable information.
Up until my early twenties, I experienced frustrating health symptoms that impacted my day-to-day life. This started a journey to discovering how I could improve my own health.
Over time, I found that nutritious foods made a huge impact on my healing and ultimately feeling healthier and happier. This sparked a passion for helping others discover the benefits of healthful nutrition too.
I first received a bachelor’s degree in exercise science, then became a certified health coach and completed two nutrition coaching certifications through Precision Nutrition from 2011-2018. Most recently I completed my Master's degree in nutrition. My education and experience combines a unique background of clinical, science-based, and holistic training giving me a well-rounded approach to nutrition counseling.

The aspect about my work that I love the most is seeing the clarity and confidence gained by my clients when we’ve found a method that works for them.
