Background

Hey, I'm Oliver! 

​

I'm a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, educator, and doctoral researcher passionate about helping individuals build healthier relationships with food, exercise, and their bodies. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practice, compassion, and the belief that nutrition should support your life, not restrict it.

​

I earned my B.S. in Biology from Tufts University and my M.S. in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology from Teachers College, Columbia University, where I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Behavioral Nutrition. I also teach nutrition and health courses at Hunter College, Queens College, and Teachers College.

​

As a gay man, I'm particularly passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ communities, exploring the intersection of identity, body image, and health. My goal is to create an affirming, judgment-free space where we can translate nutrition science into meaningful, sustainable changes that align with your individual goals.

​

Whether you're looking to improve your relationship with food, support your fitness goals, or simply feel more confident in your choices, I'm here to help you find an approach that works for you.

Approach

As a Registered Dietitian, my approach emphasizes empathy and empowerment. I create a friendly, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their relationship with food and body. Rather than prescribing diets, I help individuals develop a critical understanding of nutrition that suits their unique needs. Together, we’ll create practical and sustainable strategies that promote freedom in eating and a healthy lifestyle, allowing you to thrive as an informed and confident decision-maker!

Jane completely changed how I think about food. She’s patient, knowledgeable, and explains things in a way that actually makes sense.
