About

Making films taught me to listen for the story behind the story, and that same curiosity guides my work in nutrition. With an MS in Nutrition from Concordia College Moorhead and four years of experience as an RDN and LD, I have worked with people in hospitals, dialysis clinics, and private practice. I especially enjoy supporting individuals navigating weight and hormonal concerns and exploring the bigger picture in a warm, sustainable way.

My approach to nutrition has been shaped by a genuine curiosity about how everything connects. Food, movement, sleep, stress, hormones, mental health, and our environment can all influence how we feel and function. I believe nutrition care should go beyond simply telling someone what to eat. It should help you understand your body, make sense of the information you are receiving, and find strategies that actually fit your life.

Care philosophy

I center care on the whole person, bringing together current evidence and compassionate curiosity. We will translate research into clear, practical steps that fit your life, prioritizing lasting habits over quick fixes. I work from a weight-neutral lens, focusing on behaviors, function, and well-being rather than judgment or rigid rules.

Our work will be collaborative and educational. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions, exploring what is and is not working, and understanding the reasoning behind the recommendations we make together. My goal is to help you build a better understanding of your body and develop realistic strategies that support your health over time.

What to expect in your first session

You can expect a calm, judgment-free conversation where we will get to know each other and the context around your health. We will review your medical history and any relevant labs or biometrics, and take a deeper look at your relationship with food, daily routines, and the factors that may be affecting your health.

I want to hear what has worked, what has not, and what matters to you. Together, we will identify a couple of realistic goals, so you leave with clarity and a practical next step.
