About Me

​

I’m a master’s-prepared Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Diabetes Educator with a passion for helping people feel empowered in their health journey. I’ve worked in the field of nutrition for over 38 years—and while I hesitated to reveal that number, I’m proud of the depth and variety of experience it represents!

​

From the ICU providing life-saving nutrition support, to community work with clients on SNAP making the most of limited resources, to teaching dietetic interns and international students—I’ve seen and done it all. And through it all, one thing has stayed constant: my love for translating the science of nutrition into the art of daily living.

​

Now in private practice, I’m excited to work one-on-one with clients in a way that’s flexible, meaningful, and deeply personal. I meet you where you are, take time to understand your goals from our first conversation, and work collaboratively with you to set SMART goals that are realistic and sustainable. This is a journey, and my role is to be your steady support system—celebrating your wins, helping you through tough days, and making sure you always feel in charge of your health.

​

My primary focus areas are diabetes, pre-diabetes, and the cardiometabolic conditions that often come along with them. What does that mean? It means we pay attention not just to blood sugar, but to your heart, kidneys, nerves, and the whole picture of your well-being. Chronic conditions can feel overwhelming, but together, we’ll take small, kind, informed steps toward long-term health.

​

When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me moving—whether it’s walking, hiking, practicing yoga, or gardening. I love exploring nature, traveling, and staying curious about the world around me. That same curiosity is what brought me to nutrition in the first place. After earning my undergraduate degree in Chemistry and Microbiology, I discovered that clinical nutrition brought together everything I loved: the science of how our bodies work, and the practical choices that support a healthier life.

I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you on your journey to better health.
