Background
- I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration as well as a Bachelor's Degree in Science with a focus in Dietetics. I obtained the Dietetics Degree after becoming a volunteer at my children's school nutrition committee. I found a passion for educating individuals in the world of nutrition. I have been a Registered Dietitian for 14 years. I have been instrumental in coordinating three Accredited American Diabetes Association Diabetes programs as well as a Certified Diabetes Self-Management & Education Services (DSMES) by the state of Michigan, Michigan Department of Health and Service (MDHHS). I am a member of the American Diabetes Association, Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist.\ The expectations of my career are to provide my patients with up -to-date, evidence -based nutritional information that will guide them through their lives in making healthy lifestyle changes. Many of my current patients, as well as my co-workers, would describe me as very knowledgeable in the field of nutrition. I am praised for my passion of nutrition, outside of the box thinking, process improvement ideas/plans, energy brought to my sessions/classes, quality education materials provided to my patients, hands on approach to my teachings as well as other teaching methods to reach every type of learner. I am driven within my career of nutrition by the feedback I receive from my patients during our sessions. Additionally, their feedback allows me the opportunity to improve my skills of providing nutrition education to diverse individuals.

Approach
In my opinion, an ideal client is an individual who is willing to put in the work to make healthy lifestyle changes. By following the expert advice brought forth by myself, a Registered Dietitian, you would have the tools to make these healthy lifestyle choices. In regards to my preference of working with my patients, I am a hands on Dietitian. However, I have found that Telehealth services can be just as effective in providing my patients with tools they need to make healthy lifestyle choices.
