I am a Health Coach with certification from Teachers College Colubia University, National Certification by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners (AADP), and a Diploma from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition as a Certified Health Coach. Additionally, I have a B.A. from the University of Oregon.

My education is a combination of dietary theories of eastern and western nutrition, modern health issues, personal growth development, and holistic health coaching.

I have had the invaluable experience to study under wellness and health leaders such as Dr. Andrew Weil, Deepak Chopra, Dr. Walter Willett, Annemarie Colbin, PhD, David Wolfe, and Dr. Mark Hyman, just to name a few.

I was raised in a home where preservatives, artificial colors and flavors were not on the menu. Refined white flour and sugar were few and far between. Reading nutritional labels and eating healthy foods has been an integral part of my life. My friends and acquaintances are always asking me for advice on making healthier food choices so I decided to take my passion and knowledge of nutrition and make it my career.
