Background
Early in my career, my passion for everything food-related led me to getting a degree in culinary arts. I worked as a chef in several different capacities. One could argue that this is where my work in wellness began: I enjoyed cooking and creating menus for clients with special diet needs. Helping people and teaching them about food became a must for me in my work.
I left the kitchen to re-enter the classroom and earned a Master of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. Since then, I've worked as a clinical dietitian, outpatient dietitian, a certified health and well-being coach, and a tobacco treatment specialist.
I love what I do. I love helping people and finding what works best for the individual. My passion for all things food-related is as strong as ever and I love sharing what I know.
In my personal life, I like to spend time with my spouse, our daughter, and our big, floppy dog. I also like to crochet, hike, and garden.
