Growing up in a Mexican household I heard two conflicting statements - make sure to eat everything on your plate, but don’t overeat or else you will be labeled as ‘chubby’ I used to believe a healthy diet meant giving up beloved Mexican staples like tortillas, beans, and rice. However, as a first-generation Latina dietitian, I am here to tell you that all foods fit. My educational journey and professional experience shaped my guiding principle that all foods fit.

My goal is to work alongside you to find a diet that best fits your nutritional needs and lifestyle, removing the fear of food. I graduated from Texas A&M with my undergraduate degree and from Texas Tech with my master’s degree. My education and professional experience allow me to work with all walks of life - from infants to seniors. I look forward to working with you!
