I believe that good nutrition is the foundation for all good health. My lifelong enthusiasm for nutrition, cooking and wellness go back as far as I can remember. It has been my pleasure for many years to educate individuals and groups about the healing powers of food to both nourish and nurture the body and soul. I have spent many years within this field formally gathering knowledge regarding the most current, and the ancient, research on how to achieve optimal wellness through nutrition, mind body approaches, and proper supplementation. It is my commitment to truth that keeps me seeking for more knowledge and will be for as long as I can see. No one person has THE magic bullet when it comes to health and I believe that staying open to new discoveries both internally and externally is where the "answers" will evolve.

My goal when working with clients is to help to EMPOWER them through education and example. I practice what I preach and find that essential to understanding where my clients are at. I have had my own struggles with health and weight throughout my life, and it is these struggles that I now see as the gift that allows me to help others. I view my role as a "health coach" in aiding individuals and families to find their own path through nutrition. Freedom surrounding food choices, feeling of empowerment regarding what choices to make and knowing that they are eating optimally for their own unique physiology is what I intend to convey to each client that I work with.
