Background
I have appreciatively practiced nutrition therapy for over a decade. It has been a joy to work with many patients and witness the resolution of their nutrition related concerns.
In addition to being a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I have specialty certification in diabetes as a Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist (CDCES). I successfully provide insight into the pathophysiology of diabetes, insulin pumps/injection management, and nutrition therapy for blood sugar enhancement.
Additional specialty areas include (but are not limited to): eating disorders/disordered eating (pediatric and adult), PCOS, vegetarianism/veganism, pediatrics (including premature infants, infants, toddlers, and teens), and pregnancy.
I am confident that you know your body and its experience better than I ever could. I am humbled and fascinated by the science of nutrition, and delight in utilizing it to improve human health.
The day that you no longer need nutrition therapy, gain your “a-ha moment”, or “nutritional gem” – is a triumph on both of our parts and a proud farewell to your health advocacy!
Fun fact: My imagination is vast and dynamic. Practicing nutrition allows me to expand, explore, and exercise it for the benefit of others.
Welcome - I look forward to partnering with you!

Approach
"“Don't get discouraged....it is often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock.” - Unknown In the world of nutrition, behavior change is one of life’s most daunting challenges. I am a dedicated dietitian that seeks to help you identify and overcome those challenges. I ask permission before I proceed, and seek to understand before I inform. I will brainstorm with you, laugh with you, and value your boundaries, as well as my own. Welcome – it will be a pleasure to partner with you!"
