Background

Hello! Thanks in advance for checking out my bio. Are you looking for someone to listen to your health concerns? Hoping you can trust your body to heal? Frustrated by the overwhelming amount of conflicting information out there? I am here to help!

I enjoy helping clients take control of their health and wellness by developing personalized plans that align with their lifestyle, preferences and goals. My approach focuses on motivational communication, as well as functional nutrition testing and supplement recommendations as needed. My approach helps clients regain trust in their body's ability to heal.

I graduated summa cum laude with Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics from Benedictine University, and I am certified in Functional Medicine Nutrition. Through my clinical experience, I've gained valuable knowledge working with patients facing various conditions, including body composition changes, digestive challenges, diabetes, heart disease and oncology. I also completed a Certificate in Training for Adult and Pediatric Obesity and Overweight, allowing me to better support clients facing those challenges. 

I look forward to supporting you and your health!
