Background
I am a registered dietitian with six years of inpatient and outpatient experience in medical nutritional therapy, education and counseling. I also have 5 years background in community nutrition with nutrition education, healthy menus, as well as nutrition counseling. All with a wide variety of health concerns.
Clients can expect evidenced based care from me while focusing on individual nutrition and health concerns for a healthier lifestyle. They can also expect genuine care and respect for their individuality and issues of concern.
I chose this career because my daughter was obese, became diabetic and was not receiving good nutritional advice from her care takers. I'm a 22-year veteran of the US Air Force and that time taught me to enjoy challenges and perform well in my goals. I am also a dietitian that enjoys cooking and ensuring what I put on the table is not only healthy and nutritious, but also delicious!

Approach
"A model client for me is one who is eager for change and a healthier life. I believe a direct approach empowers a client to begin to take charge of their life by focusing on their strong points through emphasis on successes along with adjustments where needed. I am open minded and enjoy the humor we find in life through trial and success."
