She has a huge passion encouraging and equipping patients to be motivated in reaching their goals. She enjoys walking alongside patients and will always try her best to go the extra mile to give patients quality treatment.

From a personal perspective, she is loyal, intentional, trustworthy, optimistic, and caring. She enjoys cooking, being outdoors in nature and being surrounded by her family and friends.

“I have a big heart for people, and I love seeing them excited about succeeding and obtaining their nutrition related goals. I enjoy walking alongside my patients, encouraging them, motivating them, understanding them and most importantly, listening to them. Nutrition is not a “one size fits all” and a journey to health should not be done alone. I feel blessed to be able to play a part in changing people’s lives, and to call this my job.” As Robert Urich said, “A healthy outside starts from the inside”.
