From a young age, I grew up cooking alongside my grandmother and mother, creating dishes that were both healthy and delicious. Two things stood out. First, I noticed an undeniable link between what we eat and our overall feeling of health and wellness. Second, I realized that delicious foods and nutritious foods are not mutually exclusive.

My cooking hobby evolved into a passion for nutrition as I pursued formal studies on the biochemistry and medicinal value of foods. Based on this knowledge and training, I devoted my career to helping others live life to their fullest potential through their food choices.

I completed my undergraduate education at Cornell University in Education and Nutritional Sciences. I went on to complete a master’s degree in Clinical Nutrition at New York University, a dietetic internship at the James J. Peters Bronx VA Medical Center, and board certification through the Commission on Dietetic Registration. My past roles have included Nutrition Manager at Northwell Health's Cancer Institute, a Professor of Nutrition at Hofstra University, Nutrition Program development at Crossroads4Hope and a regular speaker at nutrition conferences and health seminars.

I’ve counseled and educated hundreds of people at various stages of their health journeys on the impact their nutrition has on their treatment and overall well-being. I work one-on-one with people looking to optimize their health and to design and implement sustainable and actionable nutrition plans. Feeling good enough is just not good enough. Let’s do more….together.
