I am a functional nutritionist, Level 1 Nutrition Coach and certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) based in Salem, OR. I have my Master’s in Human Nutrition & Functional Medicine from the University of Western States. I am also currently working to complete the required hours to sit for the Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) board exam. This will allow me to better serve those with more complex health conditions and make more tailored supplement recommendations based on recent lab work.

I grew up on an American Air Force base in the UK until I left to study Biology at Western Oregon University. I graduated in March of 2015 with a Pre-physicians assistant emphasis. After that, I completed my certification as an NTP through the Nutritional Therapy Association in June 2016, followed by graduate school. Then I began working to improve my skills as a coach by becoming a CrossFit Level 1 coach and Level 1 Nutrition Coach certified by the Nutrition Coaching Institute. I am now located in Salem, Oregon but frequently work with distance clients from all over.

I LOVE working with all ages and genres of health, but I am most passionate about helping people create a customized, healthier lifestyle that fits them. I also enjoy working to improve digestive health whether that be a chronic condition or symptoms like heartburn, constipation, loose urgent BMs, or excessive gas & bloating. I can help.

You can think of me as your Physical Therapist & Personal Trainer for lifestyle & nutrition rolled into one. I can create a therapeutic nutrition plan to help you heal and feel better. While I also hold you accountable each week to make sure you have good "form" with your nutrition - just like a personal trainer would coach you to better deadlift form to keep you healthy, fit & safe. I do the same with healthy habits, mindset & nutrition, making sure you are eating, moving & feeling your best whether you are cooking at home, traveling or eating out with friends. I have you covered.

Feel free to explore my site where I share my passion for nutrition & healthy living.
