I am a certified health coach and functional therapeutic diets specialist with a focus on metabolic health and using whole food nutrition and lifelong movement to improve health outcomes.  I am an advocate of taking your health into your own hands and managing what you have control over.   

​

I've struggled personally with genetic blood sugar & food sensitivity issues for 20+ years and have corrected all of my symptoms through intentional dietary strategies and proper movement.  I've also worked with clients who have autoimmune issues and metabolic dysfunctions and have watched them experience relief from daily symptoms by making small adjustments to their diets. Moving their bodies a little more. Small steps and huge outcomes.  These changes have helped them find hope again in a world that is not designed for the daily struggles that come with these conditions. I believe that helping others through this process is one of the most rewarding things I can do with my time. I truly believe that food and movement is a powerful form of medicine and that we have more control over our health that our environments and conventional wisdoms may let us realize. 

 

​I help people set up simple, sustainable systems that support new habits and long-term behavior change. I work holistically, with the whole person, because I believe that health isn’t just physical. Emotional, physical, and personal values are just at important. 

 

My role is to empower my clients to develop self-efficacy, not prescribe a quick fix. I guide my clients to develop new skills and tools, which increases their confidence to make informed choices and take consistent action. 

 

I am passionate about supporting people so they can actively participate in managing their own health.  I am grateful to be able to help people to make informed decisions about their well-being and take control of their lifestyle choices. I want to live in a world where health is prioritized, chronic disease rates are down, and there is a passion to age well by making intentional choices that create positivity and happiness.

​In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, trying to get my two dogs to listen, working with seniors as a fitness specialist, researching & writing, reading, cooking, and trying my best to stay active.
