I love watch­ing my patients grow and achieve their goals. It is among the most reward­ing and moti­vat­ing work I have done. I uti­lize a vari­ety of approach­es based in cur­rent clin­i­cal research to help my patients achieve their nutri­tion-relat­ed goals so they may attain sus­tain­able bal­ance. I want all of my patients to enjoy eat­ing and know the best kinds of food to eat to improve their over­all qual­i­ty of life.
