I’m passionate about plant-based nutrition and love helping others discover how it can change their lives. My journey started over 16 years ago when I fully embraced a vegan lifestyle. It didn’t take long for me to realize that going vegan wasn’t just the best thing I could do for animals—it’s one of the best things I can do for our planet and health!

To spread the word, I founded a nonprofit promoting a vegan lifestyle. Over the years, I noticed that most people have misconceptions about plant-based nutrition, which inspired me to study nutrition more deeply. I wanted to give people clear, science-backed information they could trust. That led to several certifications and courses to build my knowledge base.

​My formal nutrition education began in 2018 with a year-long Plant-Based Raw Food Nutrition Educator certification. Then, in 2022, I earned a certificate in plant-based nutrition from eCornell/ Center for Nutrition Studies. I’ve also completed specialized gut health courses, studying the human microbiome through Wageningen University & Research as well as plant-centered gut health through The Plant-Fed Gut Masterclass

​While working with nutrition clients, I realized that people still need help to make lasting changes, even when they have good information. That’s when I became a health coach to help bridge that gap. In 2023, I completed the Certified Plant-Based Health Coach program through the Food Revolution Network, followed by a certificate in ACT Behavioral Change in 2024.

​I’m committed to sharing current and accurate information and keeping up to date with the latest research and nutrition developments. I’ve taken additional coursework through George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, studying everything from Keto and Paleo diets to cholesterol and the effect of dairy consumption on cancer.

​I’m deeply frustrated by how many people suffer from preventable diseases and get caught in the endless cycle of fad diets that never lead to lasting health. Seeing so many struggle when real, sustainable change is within reach is disheartening. That’s why I’m dedicated to sharing the magic of a whole-food, plant-based diet!

​This lifestyle can transform your health, help you say goodbye to dieting for good, and bring out the vibrant, healthy person already within you.

I’m here to support you every step of the way as you reclaim your health and well-being!
