Nutrition Care Anywhere!
Benefit from nutrition services that fit the rhythm of your life. Tune in to 1-on-1 telehealth nutrition visits with this nationally registered and state-licensed dietitian, or access a self-learning module in the comfort of your home, during your lunch break, or while you're waiting during your child's afterschool practice. Telehealth visits are available to residents of North Carolina, New Mexico, Virginia, New Jersey, New York, Michigan, Arizona, Colorado, California, and Washington state, where I am either licensed or that only require my national credentials.
The Food of Life Philosophy
As a faith-based dietitian, I believe that the Biblical principles of stewardship over the bodies we've been given are essential for achieving and maintaining health. I have a drive and an excitement for improving my clients' quality of life through sustainable healthy eating practices and lifestyle change. I strive to inspire the motivation to improve health that begins from within each of my clients.
Most of my time as a dietitian has been providing 1-on-1 nutrition support for local clients in private practice for over 9 years, as well as providing clinical nutrition visits to patients through a nation-wide telehealth weight management program as a contract dietitian. This allowed me to support clients from all over North Carolina and in a variety of states, including Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Michigan, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and California. I help my clients set SMART goals, explain nutrition concepts in ways that are easy to grasp, create a client-specific pattern of eating for their lifestyle, and offer creative solutions for helping clients overcome road blocks to lifestyle change. My experience has also included 2 and a half years as a contract dietitian for long-term care facilities, assessing nutritional status and overseeing therapeutic diets for a wide range of geriatric residents managing any combination of chronic conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, end-stage renal disease, tube-feeding, and wounds.
My training includes a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition & Dietetics from East Carolina University and a dietetic internship through Lenoir-Rhyne University. I also hold a Master's in Public Health from Virginia Commonwealth University and have completed a Certificate of Training in Obesity for Pediatrics & Adults. You can still benefit from my expertise through my online self-learning modules with Q&A chat access.
