About Me
Do you ever feel like you know what you should be doing for your health, but you just can’t seem to make it happen? It’s frustrating, I get it. Many people struggle to bridge that gap between knowing and doing—especially with all the conflicting nutrition advice out there.
That’s where I come in. As one of only 45 dietitians in the country trained in the Dietitian Coach Approach, I work with you to make lasting, realistic changes. Over 12 weeks of weekly sessions, we’ll focus on building habits that actually feel good—no more stressing over willpower or feeling like you’re fighting yourself. I’m here as your “guide on the side,” helping you experiment, navigate the noise, and discover what works best for you.
Clients love the personalized, non-judgmental vibe of our sessions—it’s more like a partnership than a typical “diet plan.” Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you, whether that’s feeling more energized, ditching diet confusion, or finally sticking to healthy habits without the stress. The best part? It’s exciting and fun!
If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and start making real progress on your wellness goals, let’s work together. I’ll help you get clear on your vision and give you the tools to make it happen—no guilt, no overwhelm, just real change.
Before you go, here are a few things about me...
Before working as a Dietitian Coach at All Access Dietitians, I obtained a Bachelor of Dietetics in 2019 from the University of Dayton and completed a dietetic internship with a Community Nutrition Promotion Concentration in 2020 at the Medical University of South Carolina.
I was called to become a dietitian after my experience with learning about how nutrition impacted my performance as an athlete. I became curious about other ways nutrition plays a role in well-being, and I have a deep desire to want to work with others to help them meet their nutrition and wellness goals.
In addition to my coaching philosophy, I also believe in the opportunity for growth and learning at any point and stage in life. Whether it's learning to cook balanced meals for the first time or making a personalized fueling plan for an athletic event, I believe in taking the first steps towards growth and learning and being open to where the possibilities may lead you.
Outside of helping clients make their nutrition dreams a reality, I enjoy training for marathons, traveling to National Parks, and trying out new recipes to share with my family and friends.
