Background

You are not a diagnosis. You are not a food log. You are not “non-compliant.” You’re a whole person with a crazy-busy life, weird symptoms that no one can explain, and a history with food that’s complicated as heck. I see you. And I freaking love working with people exactly like you. I’m the dietitian other dietitians call when they’re stumped. The one who gets giddy about adding foods BACK IN after years of elimination diets. The one who can take a kid who lives on five beige foods and (slowly, joyfully) turn their plate into a rainbow—without meltdowns or bribes. My happy place? Unraveling the nutritional chaos of ARFID or Mast Cell Activation Syndrome Rescuing adults from the soul-crushing FODMAP desert Helping EoE warriors swallow without fear again Turning “picky eating” families into “let’s try this!” families My background? Solo mom with almost 20 years of nutrition experience Master’s degree in empowering health through food Herb and veggie gardener not afraid to pour a cup of tea against illness 7 years of guerilla boots on the ground nutrition serving interesting and healthy food to unsuspecting summer campers Personal experience with adverse food reactions, gestational diabetes, and weight struggles - I know how it is when your own body throws a curve ball.

Approach

Food is life —nutrition touches every corner of it. You probably already know a lot about what you “should” eat. The problem is, eating isn’t a simple math problem. It’s family dinners, work stress, kids who only like beige food, cravings at 9 p.m., and a lifetime of habits that feel impossible to change. That’s where I come in. I don’t hand you a meal plan that blows up your real life. Instead, we make small (or big) changes that actually fit — the kind that don’t require you to be a superhero.
