Collaboration with your care team
I pride myself on meeting clients where they are and taking the journey with them, building trusting, healing partnerships, troubleshooting obstacles, and facilitating meaningful, lasting improvement.
As a patient myself, I have seen the limitations of classic diet plans and treatment protocols. That is why I continue to strive for the best possible strategies when creating personalized plans by keeping up with the latest research and adding modalities to my toolkit.

Working with Me
There is no shortage of diets, supplements, protocols, and advice out there—but that doesn’t mean they all work for you. My goal is to help you cut through the noise and make the most of your time, energy, and resources by creating a personalized plan that reflects your unique needs, preferences, and lived experience.
I take pride in meeting clients where they are and taking the journey with them. Together, we build strong, trusting partnerships, troubleshoot obstacles, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

My approach includes:
Personalized Nutrition

Herbal & Functional Medicine
Custom herbal formulations, nutritional supplementation when needed, and advanced testing to assess nutrient status, food sensitivities, microbiome health, genomics, and toxin burden.

Support for organizing efforts and goals, mindful and intuitive eating, lifestyle and sleep strategies, fitness guidance, stress management, and Mindfulness-Based Hypnosis.
About Me
I’ve been in practice for 7 years and consider myself a generalist—I love working with all kinds of people. That said, I have particular interest in mental health, gastrointestinal and immune issues, and metabolic health.
I am a Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) through the American Nutrition Association and a Licensed Dietitian-Nutritionist (LDN) in the state of Illinois. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Nutrition and Integrative Health from the Maryland University of Integrative Health and a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Indiana University.
Outside of work, I love connecting with people, being in nature, and seeing live music. A music festival that combines all three is my happy place.
"Thank you for helping me and my family with our dietary adventures. I honestly feel better digestively than I have my entire life. It's been a little over a year since we had our first meeting, and I weigh over 25 pounds lighter and have so much more energy.”
