About the Nutritionist

I am a Registered Nurse and a Nutrition Therapy Master, dedicated to promoting holistic health and wellness. I hold training and certification in both Western medicine and holistic nutrition therapy. As a Registered Nurse for 10 years, my experience spans cardiac care, Post Anesthesia Care Units (PACU), and currently, the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), where I witness firsthand the challenges patients face with chronic diseases. I have an extensive background in providing evidence-based healthcare, working directly with patients to manage acute and chronic conditions while utilizing the latest medical advancements to ensure the best possible outcomes. This insight inspired me to deepen my understanding of holistic nutrition, which I studied at the Nutrition Therapy Institute in Arvada, CO.

In addition to my nursing credentials, I have earned a degree in Nutrition Therapy, equipping me with in-depth knowledge and expertise in identifying the root causes of health issues. Through this dual perspective, I integrate the principles of traditional medical practices with a holistic, client-centered approach to nutrition and wellness. This unique combination of skills allows me to address complex health concerns by identifying underlying factors and developing personalized, effective treatment plans. This broad base of knowledge and experience ensures that I can provide a well-rounded, evidence-based perspective, prioritizing the overall health and well-being of each individual in a compassionate, informed manner.

My personal journey with gastrointestinal issues led me to seek guidance from a Nutrition Therapy Master, which transformed my life and ignited my passion for helping others achieve optimal wellness.

When I'm not in the hospital, studying or in the kitchen, I enjoy the great outdoors of Colorado. Biking, running, swimming, traveling, and hiking are among my favorite activities, allowing me to connect with nature and promote a healthy lifestyle. I am deeply committed to helping others navigate their health challenges and look forward to supporting you on your path to wellness.
