I was born and raised in Chicago, attended the University of Dayton for undergrad (Go Flyers!) and received my master's degree at Central Michigan University. I currently work at the University of Chicago as the liver transplant dietitian, specializing in all types of liver disease. I also own my own consulting business which has allowed me to broaden my expertise to serve an even wider variety of patient populations. When I am not working, I am spending time with my family- my husband, Kevin, and my two young (crazy) boys, Marty and Charlie, and have one more on the way!

When I first entered the workforce as a dietitian my life looked picture perfect on the outside, but on the inside my work was so unfulfilling and I couldn’t quite put my finger on it; then intuitive eating and reiki entered my life. What many people don’t realize is that a major component of nutrition is behavior change. Behavior change has nothing to do with the foods you eat, rather it’s all about habits and mindset. Here’s where it gets interesting. Energetic imbalances are at the root of your habits and mindset, and this is why I incorporate intuitive eating and reiki into my work with clients.

All clients are ideal...they come with their own individual nutrition issues. As a Registered Dietitian it is my hope that we can come up with a plan of action to meet their needs. By giving the client time to communicate what they have been dealing with and coming up with goals together....the support can come in a gentle and nurturing environment. Many clients come in not knowing what to expect or are scared of making changes. That is not unusual. Helping them see what they can accomplish and breaking it down into manageable pieces can decrease the anxiety of coming in.

I specialize in helping individuals and families optimize their health, well-being, and eating behaviors. I offer private nutrition counseling and group workshops using a non-diet, Health At Every Size (HAES) perspective. This means I won’t focus on your body size or prescribe eating rules to follow. Instead, I will serve as a guide on your journey to better health and wellness. This journey looks different for everyone; there is no “one size fits all.”

My philosophy is to treat each individual as a unique case, focusing on you as a whole entity, and addressing the root of the problem. I want to help you reach your wellness goals, not just focus on symptom management. If you’re tired of feeling like you’re doing everything “right” and hearing that your lab results are “normal”, but you still feel “off” and can’t pinpoint it, then it’s time to schedule your 15 min consultation to see how I can support you.
