About Me

I spent my first year at the University of Michigan (like many other students their first time living independently) without any structure regarding my diet, exercise or sleep routine. I came home with inflamed skin, low energy levels and displeasure with the weight I put on.  I sought the help of a fabulous, compassionate registered dietitian who helped me learn the principles and importance of nutritious eating, establishing routine and healthy habits in addition to spurring my interest in the field of nutrition. Once I graduated college, I went on to receive my Master’s in Nutrition from NYU.

Upon graduation, I became the cardiac dietitian at the NYU Langone Medical Center, followed by my position as nutritionist for the NYU Program for Surgical Weight Loss. In this role, I was part of a world-renowned team of surgeons, psychologists and nurses who helped morbidly obese bariatric patients lose weight and dramatically change their overall health and lives. This eye-opening experience exposed me to philosophies from the world’s leading specialists in weight loss. I took these lessons with me when I ultimately began my private practice,  specializing in weight loss and wellness.

I spent the last year returning to my roots working for NYU Langone’s weight loss program when I was asked to cover for one of their dietitians on leave. In addition to working with patients undergoing weight loss surgery, I also started helping clients boost their success with and without weight loss medication. In the ever changing field of nutrition I love collaborating with my clients to help them feel their best.

Health is about so much more than food. I am committed to coaching each of my clients to become more mindful and thoughtful in food selections and overall physical activity, self-care, sleep and body image. Through a series of tools, accountability and support, I develop an overall plan that makes lifestyle changes attainable. I celebrate my clients’ personal victories as my own.
