About Me

The Heading Healthy Dietitian Experience

A passion of the mine is to help athletes of all levels achieve their performance and wellness goals through fueling and recovering adequately. Small changes can go a long way, especially with tweaks to nutrition and hydrations techniques. 

Whether you are looking for basic nutrition or strategies to meet your active lifestyle and performance needs, my goal is to help personalize a game plan just for you.  Being able to understand basics of nutrition and to feel happier and healthier in all aspect of life is important for everyone.

Current Work Experience

I wear many hats in the world of health and wellness!

As a part-time clinical registered dietitian, I primarily work in an outpatient setting, specializing in supporting individuals with mental health conditions like PTSD and eating disorders. My previous experience as an inpatient dietitian treating patients with spinal cord injuries and disorders allows me to assist a wider range of clients with their medical nutritional needs.

Beyond nutrition, I'm also a passionate Lagree Fitness Instructor at studios across San Diego, helping individuals achieve their fitness goals through this innovative workout method.

Past Work Experience 

Prior to completing my dietetic internship at the VA San Diego, CA, I worked as a diet technician at the Center For Discovery (eating disorder rehabilitation) and provided 1-1 services as a personal trainer.
