Background

Hi there my name is Andrea! 

As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Health Coach, I have seen the life-changing impact of living a healthier lifestyle can do for individual’s. I work alongside my clients in helping them unlock their best potential and improve their quality of life through nutrition and wellness.

My passion for nutrition started back in high school as I had a severe broken relationship with food, under-eating, over exercising that caused a detrimental effect on my health. As I pursued my education in nutrition at Ball State University, I quickly realized what I was doing was not normal, let alone healthy. I hope for my clients to restore their relationship with food sooner rather than later and begin living the life they’ve always imagined. 

Working with me, we not only focus on the areas of nutrition you are interested in, but we also work through breaking through the dieting mindset, to one of freedom, balance, and enjoyment! By working together, I hope for you to gain strength, gain confidence, and feel empowered around your health and wellness goals. Whether you’re an athlete, new mom, recently been diagnosed with diabetes, or working on weigh-loss I ensure we create goals tailored to you. 

Education:

I was fortunate enough to not only complete my Bachelor’s degree at Ball State University in Nutrition, with a minor in health education. But I also moved forward with my Master’s in nutrition and worked alongside the athletic department as a graduate assistant. Upon graduation, I completed my 1,000 hours of supervised practice and passed the national exam for Registered Dietitians. 

Work Experience:

I am currently working full-time as a Health Coach in corporate wellness which I absolutely love. Since taking on this new role as a Dietitian and Health Coach, I have began my training to also become a Nationally Board Certified Health Coach. 

Prior to this, I had predominately worked within the sports industry as a Minor League Sports Dietitian for Chicago Cubs at their South Bend AA Affiliate. Go Cubs!

Due to my passion for helping others create a healthy and sustainable lifestyle, I started my own Private Practice and work with one-on-one clients remotely. I have had the opportunity to help many individuals reach their fitness goals but have also helped them learn how to live an intuitive lifestyle with no food rules and more food freedom.

Personal Information/Hobbies: 

Outside of all things nutrition, I’m an “early bird gym-junkie,” primarily weightlifting and cardio. When I’m not at the gym or working, I love spending time with my Golden Retriever (Quest, named after the supplement company), family, creating fun videos/educational content, or spending time with my boyfriend Jake. My favorite season of all is summer! There is nothing that sunshine and a cold Diet Coke can’t fix (oh and maybe coffee).
