I am a family medicine physician who personally transitioned to whole food plant based eating for my health. I am passionate about sharing the benefits with my patients and encouraging each on their wellness journey.

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!

I am a Holistic Health Practitioner with a Master of Nutrition degree from NC State and am Triple Board Certified in: Holistic Nutrition®, Lifestyle Medicine and as a National Health & Wellness Coach. The latter credential ultimately helps facilitate the behavioral/lifestyle changes my clients are seeking. Being diagnosed with Celiac Disease as a child in 1986, food and health have been a big part of my life. This was the impetus for my work to help others attempt to live their healthiest and best lives through food and nutrition.

I worked in the food service industry for more than 20 years. I’ve worked in restaurants, as a nutritional consultant, catering, a five-star hotel and owned the first gluten free bakery in my area. My husband is a Chef with a degree from Louisiana Culinary Institute. We frequently work together with clients to combine our two skills in hopes of helping our clients more efficiently and effectively incorporate long lasting life changes for overall health.

I typically have clients come to me after they have tried most, or all of the Allopathic avenues presented to them, with little to no avail. Working with a client’s current medical team to best serve them is my preference. Between my areas of expertise, and that of their existing team, the hope is to work together to give the client back their power to live their highest and best life, despite whatever their medical diagnosis may be.
