Background
With over 25 years of experience in the field as a Registered Dietitian my background spans food service management, clinical nutrition, dietetic management, and outpatient counseling, allowing me to provide comprehensive support tailored to each client’s needs.
I am board certified in obesity weight management and I am a certified diabetes care and education specialist. I have well-rounded expertise in but not limited to cardiac health, bariatric surgery, and renal disease, having developed successful weight management programs that empower clients to achieve their health goals.
I was recognized for my contributions to the field, by being honored as the Dietitian of the Year in 2017 by Nutrition Alliance Consulting. Currently residing in Arizona, I cherish my role as a proud grandmother to seven grandchildren and two children, and have devoted over 20 years to rescuing dogs.
Outside of my professional life, I enjoy reading, baking, cooking, crocheting, and wood burning. My passion for helping clients succeed is evident in my positive reinforcement approach and friendly environment, ensuring that you feel relatable and supported on you journey toward improved health.
