Background

My passion specializes in general nutrition guidance, sports nutrition, intuitive eating, and body image concerns. I work with athletes of all levels—from competitive to recreational—who want to improve energy, strength, and recovery without obsessing over food or chasing unrealistic body ideals. I believe that if you make an effort to move your body daily, that makes you an athlete and you should fuel like one!

I hold a Master’s degree in Nutrition Science and am a Registered Dietitian with over 3 years of sports and private practice experience, including working with collegiate athletes, endurance sport teams, and active people from all walks of life. As a former Division I athlete myself, I understand the unique pressure and demands while competeing in sport, as well as the shocking transition that happens as we transition into a sustainable daily exercise routine.

I've dedicated my practice to supporting those looking to balance movement and exercise with long-term well-being!

Outside of sessions, you’ll find me hiking local trails, cozied up with a book, playing pickleball, or spending time with my dog. I’m a big believer in the power of connection and will always prioritize getting to know my clients on a personal level before initiating an change.

Jane completely changed how I think about food. She’s patient, knowledgeable, and explains things in a way that actually makes sense.
