I am a Certified Nutritionist and Nutrition Educator. I have a Cornell University education in Nutrition & Healthy Living and Whole Food Plant Based Nutrition. I am a Behavior Change Specialist through the National Association of Sports Medicine and a Certified Instructor of the Food Over Medicine Course highlighted in the film "Forks Over Knives".  In addition, I am a Certified Personal Trainer.

 

These skills enable me to provide practical strategies that are science and evidence based for those who are looking to transition to a healthier way of living and eating by formulating Nutrition Plans and customized meal plans, Lifestyle programs, and by providing the necessary tools and support for you to  transition to a healthier diet and to even a whole food plant based diet. 

​

​Doctors, the media, and the general public are becoming increasingly aware of the health benefits of plant-based eating, but there is a lot of confusing information on-line and in the media.  Are supplements good for you or bad for you? How much protein is enough?  I can explain the “Why” and teach you “How” to incorporate healthier whole foods and plant-based eating into your day to day life.  You will get step-by-step guidance on how to navigate the grocery store, how to stock your pantry, how to decipher food labels, and how to prepare quick and easy plant-based meals for you, your friends and your family.

​When I am not railing against the standard American diet, I can be found either at the gym or binge-watching Netflix.  I can proudly say that I have never force-fed Kale to anyone.....at least not recently.
