About Me
My name is Jordan, and I am happy to be a registered dietitian nutritionists. I initially became interested in nutrition as a career while studying abroad in Italy. It occurred to me there that while we all eat roughly the same foods, our health disparities were evident even at the street level. I came home, changed my major, and the rest is history! I have since completed an internship, master's degree, and five subsequent years of experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. My specialty is primarily healthy eating and the management of disordered eating behaviors. However, I feel comfortable addressing and navigating a myriad of nutrition concerns with my clients. I will always be honest and straightforward with my clients, and intend to work as a team. I am not the "food police" and never will be!
My mission is to equip clients with the knowledge, ability to self assess, and ultimately live a life that is a balance of delicious and nutritious. I have a Bachelor's Degree and a Master's Degree in nutrition sciences, as well as a certification in the management of tube feeds and IV nutrition. I love to learn, and am constantly engaging with new information, be it books, podcasts, or articles.
When I am not working as a dietitian, I have two sweet pups, Loki and Rider, who keep me active. I also have a bunch of hobbies. I coach group fitness classes, crochet, calligraphy, and have recently ventured into digital design. I love how creativity and science compliment each other so well, and I use this synergy to help my clients approach their nutritional goals.
