I've seen firsthand the tremendous impact nutrition can have on your brain and body, after suffering a concussion with a multitude of related symptoms, I felt lost. Nutrition saved my brain, and improved my memory and concentration. In the process my gut health also improved, sugar cravings went away, and I slept better. I suffered a lot of different symptoms after my concussion and know my nutrition played a huge role in my healing process and where I am today.

As a woman in her 50's, I intimately understand how our health and self-care can get put on the back burner while taking care of others. Regardless of how much nutrition or exercise knowledge a person has, it doesn't mean it is easy to integrate it into a daily routine. In my 40's, I took control of my life and health once again. I absolutely love showing other women how they can do the same through learning to fuel their bodies with quality nutrition, decreasing cravings and maximizing energy levels without depriving themselves of everything they love.

I aim to improve my clientele's relationship with food, regardless of the reason for the sessions. Many times, clients I work with feel preoccupied/obsessed with food and diet culture and are seeking release from this distress.

I also have a Master of Science degree in Nutrition & Physical Performance and enjoy meeting with athletes to discuss ways to optimize performance through nutritional habits.

My clients are people who are looking for a cutting edge approach to nutrition and health. Whether your issue is wanting to lose weight, have more energy, sleep better or you are dealing with a more difficult health challenge, I am dedicated to assisting my clients with a proven track record of success.
