My journey towards a healthier lifestyle began over fifteen years ago when I was 30 pounds heavier, constantly yo-yo dieting, restricting calories, and gorging on “diet” and sugar-free products.  I struggled with gut-related issues, candida, and constant skin breakouts. When I was pregnant with my first child and heard the words “gestational diabetes” from my provider I knew I had to start taking control of my health for my family and I. Hippocrates said it best, “Let food be thy medicine.”

​

My passion for nutrition grew and led me to become a dietitian so I could help others on their path to better health. As a nutritionist & dietitian for over 12 years, I have had the opportunity to help others break free of dieting and a poor relationship with food. In addition to obtaining my M.S. in nutrition/dietetics, I have completed additional training in functional nutrition which taught me a deeper understanding of what may be leading to your nutrition concerns such as gut-related issues, inflammation, sluggish metabolism, and hormonal imbalance.

​

In my spare time, you can find me on the farm with my husband and 3 kiddos, collecting eggs, loving on our highland cows, and chasing pigs.
