Lauren’s interest in nutrition began with a passion for understanding how food impacts health, performance, and overall quality of life. Over time, that curiosity grew into a commitment to helping others use nutrition as a tool for empowerment and healing. Her specialized training in bariatric surgery allows her to support clients through various surgical procedures and all stages of the process, from preparation to long-term success.

Lauren believes that everyone deserves compassionate, individualized nutrition care. She practices with a supportive and realistic approach, helping each client find their own path toward balanced eating, body confidence, and sustainable well-being.

She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics from Benedictine University and her Master’s Degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Loyola University Chicago.

Outside of work, Lauren enjoys cooking and baking new recipes, spending time outdoors, staying active, reading, and relaxing with loved ones.
