I have been vegetarian since 2021 and quit dairy completely in early 2025. I know how difficult it can be to move away from animal products and feel like you’re relearning recipes and go-to meals, but I also know the impact to health of moving toward a more whole food plant-based diet.
My passion is in helping others discover how to incorporate more fruits, veggies, and other whole plant foods into their diet without feeling like they have to sacrifice enjoyment, taste, or convenience. I have always enjoyed food and I take great pleasure in helping others discover foods and recipes that they learn to love that also love them back.
I find that focusing on what you CAN eat to fuel healing and provide energy to pursue your goals is much more motivating than focusing on what you’re “giving up.”
It is my passion, and would be my privilege, to be able to support you on this journey.

I am a practicing OB/GYN with particular focus on primary care of women through all stages of life. I have been the acting director of reproductive medicine (caring for infertility)for many years and in that context have developed a lifestyle program ( The LIFE PROGRAM) which has evolved to cover a full range of evidence-based prevention encompassing the gamut of chronic diseases including heart disease, diabetes, obesity, dementia, cancers and many others. We now have compelling evidence that these epidemic-wide problems are preventable and in some cases reversible. 
On a personal note, my family and I try to be as self sufficient as possible. We raise much of our own food by tending a large organic garden and orchard based on regenerative agriculture. Gardening is a metaphor for health, figuratively and literally. The health of soil is not unlike the micro biome we carry within us.
