Background

credentials: Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer. I love to help people.  I have recovered from many injuries over the years, and still have run over 40 marathons and half marathons. I help people understand the difference between food intolerances and food allergies, and work with all likes and dislikes, and religious and family situations.  Since my undergraduate degree was in Psychology, I also work with the client on behavior modifications and their view on health and food. I also work closely with the person's MD or other health professionals to create a workable team.

Approach

"I am a Certified Personal Trainer besides a Registered Licensed Dietitian (for over 40 years). I have specialties in Maternal and Infant and Child Nutrition, besides Sports Nutrition. I love to help people create a healthy lifestyle that fits into their daily lives, that is flexible and helpful. My ideal client is one who is motivated and ready to make changes that will be permanent. Small changes over time are what I focus on."
