Background

Lose weight for the last time- with realistic nutrition, not another diet.

Healthy eating shouldn't feel confusing, restrictive, or impossible to maintain. Whether your goal is losing weight, improving your cholesterol or blood sugar, managing a medical condition, what to eat while pregnant or breastfeeding, or getting the most from a GLP-1 medication, I'm here to help you create a realistic plan that fits your life—not someone else's.

I believe lasting health comes from balance, not perfection. Together, we'll focus on practical nutrition strategies that work with your schedule, budget, food preferences, and personal goals. There are no fad diets or unrealistic expectations—just evidence-based guidance, encouragement, and small changes that add up to lasting results.

I have extensive experience supporting individuals using GLP-1/GIP medications for weight loss. Whether you're starting treatment, looking to minimize side effects while protecting your nutrition, or preparing to taper off medication, I'll help you build healthy habits that support both your weight loss goals and your long-term health.

I also enjoy helping people simplify nutrition. Nutrition advice can often feel conflicting and overwhelming, but together we'll cut through the confusion and create an approach that feels clear, practical, and sustainable.

When we work together, you can expect:

  • Personalized nutrition recommendations tailored to your lifestyle
  • Practical meal planning and everyday strategies you can actually use
  • Supportive accountability without judgment
  • Guidance on dietary supplements when appropriate
  • Encouragement to build healthy habits that last long after our sessions

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from the University of Arizona, am certified in GLP-1 Nutrition Counseling, and am a Registered Yoga Teacher. If you're interested, we can also explore how movement, stress management, sleep hygiene and other lifestyle habits can support your overall health.

Approach

My approach is warm, collaborative, and personalized. I take the time to truly understand what matters most to you and meet you where you are. You don't have to navigate your health journey alone; I'll be your partner every step of the way as we build a healthier, more confident, and sustainable relationship with food.

Ready to make lasting changes? I'd love to help you get started.
