A little about me…

• I wasn’t always a nutritionist- I did a 15-year stint as a civil-environmental engineer

• I love food and all things health and wellness

• I’ve lived in Maryland -> a ski town in Colorado -> Maryland

• I am also a yoga teacher

• I love all things outdoors and nature, except bugs

• I am a wife, mom, and dog mom

• Stress and I have been in a long term relationship

• What I thought was healthy for me turned out not to be

For years I was fatigued and felt like I was always getting sick, and battling migraines, sometimes for a week at a time and several times a month. Additionaly my skin, my energy level, and my mood were a mess. I then discovered yoga where I connected to my body and mind and found some stress relief. I decided to start a new path and study for my master’s degree in clinical nutrition and integrative health. Aligning my background in environmental studies, the mind body practice of yoga, and nutrition felt like a natural path for my career.

With my nutrition studies and the help of many wonderful colleagues, I was able to find relief from my migraines, reagain my energy, and clear up my skin! I love to help empower others to find their path to health and wellness.
