About Me

Before working as a Dietitian Coach at All Access Dietitians, I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics from Indiana University - Bloomington and completed my Dietetic Internship at Loyola University - Chicago.

My interest in nutrition coaching grew from working as a clinical dietitian, where I developed a strong foundation in providing individualized, evidence-based Medical Nutrition Therapy. This experience has allowed me to confidently educate patients and manage a variety of health conditions. Through this experience I have observed how nutrition care isn't just about providing recommendations, it is about connecting with patients, understanding their needs, and supporting them with compassion and expertise.

I am particularly passionate about incorporating mindful and intuitive eating into my practice. This approach empowers clients to reconnect with their bodies, develop healthier relationships with food, and discover sustainable ways to reach their goals. Above all, I am deeply committed to building trusting relationships, celebrating progress, and ensuring clients feel supported, heard, and motivated every step of the way.

In addition to my coaching philosophy, I believe that empowering clients to take the lead in their care is what promotes lasting change. Transforming the client-dietitian relationship by guiding clients to explore their motivations and barriers, rather than prescribing solutions.

Outside of my professional work, I enjoy trying new restaurants, spending time with friends, workout classes, and exploring Chicago's music scene, which allows me to recharge and stay inspired to help my clients achieve their nutrition goals.
