Background
I have a Masters degree in nutrition and am a licensed and credentialed registered dietitian. I’m experienced in addressing nutritional needs for diverse populations; specifically infants, children, prenatal and postnatal care, and lactating people. I also have experience with managing and preventing diabetes. On a personal note, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes years ago and know too well the impact that a big health diagnosis can have on your life. Through this experience, I’ve understood the importance of being in touch with your food and wellbeing, and always checking nutrition labels! I’m driven to educate others about nutrition as I have been, and empower them to overcome whatever barriers are getting in the way of making healthy choices. Ask me about affordable food options, access to healthy foods, and cultural preferences. I’ve had a few years of experience as a dietitian under my belt and am eager to continue growing and learning each day. Hablo español.

Approach
"I aim to ask the right questions to understand my clients and their health priorities. Learning about each individual, their needs and lifestyle, allows me to be flexible with my approach to empower them towards healthy choices. Together, we’ll come up with the next step towards a larger goal. I’ve learned that each person I counsel has a different approach to food and nutrition. I keep that in mind and I take each new client as a learning opportunity for us both."
