When it comes to health, I'm all about balance and having fun. I have a passion for helping people find a way to make healthy eating tasty and satisfying.

When you come to your appointment with me, I want to learn what foods you truly enjoy. We will discuss ways to still eat your favorite foods while also adding healthy options. I particularly enjoy helping patients come up with recipes for healthy meals that can be made with five or fewer ingredients in less than 30 minutes.

My first job as a registered dietitian was with a public health agency, where I taught patients how to incorporate healthier food and physical activity into their lives. Most of my clients at the time lacked access to transportation, supermarkets, healthcare, recreational amenities and other resources many of us take for granted.

CoreLife Novant Health provides opportunities for me to counsel patients on a more sustained and individualized basis.

A native of Winston-Salem, I am a 2018 graduate of Meredith College, where I won the Nutrition Service Award while studying to become a registered dietitian. I married in 2019 and spend most of my free time cooking easy, healthy meals and watching crime shows.
