I am a Nurse Practioner who is passionate about helping you get unstuck in your health goals whether it's losing weight, managing blood sugars, or generally feeling better!

As a Functional Nutrition and Lifestyle Practitioner, I began to understand the importance of nutrition and health - but there is more. I understood how poor sleep patterns from nutritional deficiencies and stress all play a huge role. I learned that so many of us suffer from simple nutritional deficiencies that are easily managed.

My goal is to help prevent problems from becoming disease and to help mitigate disease from getting worse.

This grew out of my own life experience of being obese and then having Bariatric surgery. I also struggled with some weight regain 5 years after surgery and knew I needed to get back on track; to attain the health goals I had desired, but I felt my chemistry set was broken. No matter what I did, things didn't change.

I began to study Functional Medicine and Nutrition and the light came on. There are so many things that are overlooked by traditional medicine that can easily be managed. However, due to lack of time and education, and requirements to meet managed care standards, the average person is left with nowhere else to turn.

Yes, I started this journey as my own experiment to fix my health. To really understand how MY body was working. Healthcare is not "one size fits all". We are all different. This is how I have chosen to dedicate my work. To listen to those who don't feel listened to. To think creatively to help with underlying issues or disordered.
