Background
Clients can expect to meet and work with a very hard working and open minded Dietitian. If a client does not learn something new from an interaction or feels it is not beneficial then I have failed that Client. I strive to bring new and up to date information at each interaction. I have over seven years of inpatient and outpatient experience. I have work in ASMBS accredited Bariatric Programs for over six years. I have worked with Clients with many different back grounds such as Diabetes and Cardiovascular conditions. I have been diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis for the past 6 years so I have personal and professional experience working with clients that may have UC, IBS, Crohn's Disease. I graduated from Southern Illinois University Carbondale, where I obtained my Bachelor's of Science in Human Nutrition. I completed my internship and Master's of Science at Saint Louis University. I have been working as a Clinical Dietitian for over seven years seeing both inpatients and outpatients. As a Dietitian I am a firm believer in Intuitive Eating and that there is no need for extreme regimens or extreme dieting. During my free time I enjoy spending time with my wife and kids, working out, hiking, biking, traveling, and learning how to work on trucks and cars. My goal as a Dietitian is to help as many people as I can improve their health and quality of life. I have gone into private practices in hopes of connecting with new people from all different backgrounds and working together to achieve amazing things!

Approach
"My unique approach to working with clients is that I strive to provide the best care possible while meeting the client where they are at. I strive to help those that are motivated to improve their health by listening to them and empowering them to overcome any obstacle that the client may face. I would say the difference in my style from other Dietitians is that the client is in the driver's seat. It is your health, your goals, your dreams and I am dedicated to help you achieve them!"
