Summary
I am a licensed and registered dietitian committed to providing superior nutrition and wellness care. Appropriate nutrition care is integral to every condition, is important for every individual, and is very often misunderstood. I work with clients to remove the mysteries of sound nutrition and provide meaningful education to improve health. I am seeking new opportunities to continue to learn and collaborate with other health care providers to maximize care of the patient.

Responsibilities
I am currently the lead dietitian for an outpatient Partial Hospitalization eating disorders program.
In the partial program, I am responsible for providing all aspects of nutrition care in an outpatient eating disorder setting. The primary focus of eating disorder nutrition therapy is the correction of any nutrient deficiencies that may apply. Upon nutrient repletion, I provide education about nutrition needs, psychoeducation around the effects of eating disorder behaviors, and work with patients to challenge their beliefs about food and increase variety.
I also work on inpatient psychiatric and eating disorder units to provide accurate assessment, planning, and coordination of appropriate nutrition care for patients with various medical conditions.
In my private practice, I provide nutrition education services to a large client base. Specialty areas include sports nutrition, eating disorder care, food allergies, metabolic measurements, weight management and childhood nutrition. I also develop and provide nutrition education seminars, wellness programs and health fairs for healthcare, corporate and local communities.
