I hail from the Florida Keys and obtained my Bachelor of Science degree in Nutritional Sciences from Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. I completed my dietetic internship at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee. Through my clinical rotations, I solidified my interest in diabetes and completed focused rotations at the Eskind Diabetes Clinic at Vanderbilt.

I have practiced as Registered Dietitian since 2012 and have worked in a diverse range of practice areas and patient populations including long term care as well as community and public health nutrition. I served as the sole clinical dietitian for Mariners Hospital of Baptist Health South Florida for over seven years where I was responsible for both the inpatient and outpatient nutritional care. I have held a specialty certification as a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES) since 2016. I received my Master of Science degree in Clinical Nutrition from The University of Alabama.

With my clinical training and expertise, I can provide specific nutritional guidance for a multitude of medical conditions and health goals.

On a personal note, I am a former division I collegiate runner turned marathoner and Ironman triathlete. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, camping, skiing, and traveling. I’m also getting into mountain biking and fly fishing now that I’m based in Colorado.
