Background
Hello! I have been a Registered Dietitian for just over 20 years now. Food has been an important part of my life. My dad was a chef who taught me to cook & I wanted to follow in his footsteps so I got my Associate of Science in Restaurant Management but got my 1st job after graduating in a hospital kitchen. This led to the health care field & eventually a desire to work in more clinical food-related role so I went back to college & got my Master of Science in Nutrition then became a RD. I went back to college 1 more time & got my Master of Science in Health Care Administration so I have a pretty diverse background in food-nutrition-medicine. I specialize in weight loss("old school" & GLP-1s)/bariatric (pre/post surgery), diabetes, kidney-dialysis, heart, lung, fatty liver disease/NAFLD/MASLD, GI/GUT conditions as well as tube feeding & IV nutrition. My passion is 'helping people be healthy' & I know together--we can SUCCEED! I look forward to the opportunity in helping YOU succeed!!!
