I started my career in clinical nutrition with a weight loss of over 70 lbs. Since then, I have obtained my graduate degree in Clinical Nutrition from New York University and am currently on the board of directors of the National Lipid Association and the Clinical Nutrition Coordinator at the NYU School of Medicine. My sub-specialty is weight management (loss/gain) and heart health (cholesterol, blood pressure, familial hypercholesterolemia, diabetes and pre-diabetes, and metabolic syndrome).

I truly believe you have the power to change your life. The goal is to find a balance between all dimensions of nutrition – wellness, exercise, stress management, spirituality, and emotional well-being. Food provides us with one form of nutrition but to ultimately feel fully nourished you must commit to a healthy lifestyle, a fulfilling life purpose, balanced emotions, adequate rest, and always stay focused with a positive attitude. Healing the whole person will allow one to achieve the highest quality of life.

I understand the feeling of hopelessness and overwhelm when dealing with weight gain, food sensitivities, fatigue, anxiety, poor digestion or chronic disease management or prevention.
