I am a Registered Dietitian (RD) and a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES) with a passion to coach people living with chronic medical conditions especially diabetes and its related challenges. I have collaborated with some of the top-tier medical facilities including the University of Washington and Northwest Hospitals where I provided clinical support in the areas of medical nutrition therapy and diabetes management.

My Approach
I'd like to meet you where you are in life and work together to get to the healthier "you".
Living with any chronic-long term illness is challenging and requires developing educated skills and knowledge, compassionate self-care, and coaching to sort through life. This is especially important in managing diabetes, as the person dealing with diabetes has so much power to help themselves when provided with the right tools.
​
When you put the effort to check your glucose regularly, try to watch what you eat, and you still see those high glucose numbers it can be frustrating and at times hopeless. Through working together, I walk my patients through simple, yet particle strategies to master their diabetes management, be able to make sense of their glucose, make educated adjustments, and ultimately feel empowered to lead a healthier life.
​
As a diabetes specialist, I also work closely with your provider to help with your diabetes medication management and optimize your health outcomes.
