I teach you to manage your food like a financial manager teaches you to manage your money. All food is fair game, just how much and how often is the question.

Hello! I am a clinical dietitian with an interest in disordered eating behaviors. When I was in high school I saw a lot of my peers struggling with body image, self esteem, and disordered eating.

That means I'm focused on your health first, not just your weight. When you decide to work with me you will gain the tools necessary to make healthful decisions with confidence.
