Background
I am a passionate RDN with 5 years of clinical experience as well as my own 180 pound weight loss story and reversal of my own prediabetes. I have worked closely with patients and healthcare clients alike across public and private hospitals, outpatient clinics, public health nutrition services, and humanitarian outreach.
My specialties include weight management, disordered eating patterns, hormone and metabolic regulation, diabetes and pre-diabetes, thyroid optimization, autoimmune disorders, PCOS, high blood pressure, and bariatrics.
I have a Master's degree in Dietetics from University of Southern California in Dietetics and a Bachelor's degree in Nutrition (min. Public Health Comm.) from Arizona State University. I am on the Board of Directors of the American Red Cross, South Florida Chapter, wherein I teach lectures on Nutrition, Ageism and Equity and assist in obtaining donations for the charity.
My greatest passion in life is helping patients find their voice while navigating the healthcare system, and assisting them in facilitating their own care. Thank you for taking the time to review my application information. I look forward to meeting with you!
