I just can't wait! I just can't wait for my next meal, my next dining experience, my next grocery shopping trip. I love to be around food. I love to prepare it, serve it, taste it, savor it. My life is just as real as yours. I am managing a business, have family health concerns, a young son to care for, a budget to stick to. I get tired and have many days that grabbing dinner on the way home seems easier than making something, but I CHOOSE to be healthy, happy, and to enjoy little things along the way. I CHOOSE to make time for managing nutrition, physical activity, sleep, and health. I want to help you do the same. I just can't wait!! Are you a corporate traveler? I’ve been there, done that! Earlier in my career, I managed a restaurant and food service outlets and then worked in hotel sales and traveled around the country for meetings and trade shows. Let's work together so you understand what foods fuel your body and which foods leave you feeling full and satisfied for a productive work day. I enjoy working one on one to provide guidance or speaking to groups. I want to learn about YOU and understand what kind of twists and turns life is taking you on. Let's work to make a nutrition strategy that fits your life. Life doesn't happen according to plan so we shouldn't expect to follow a set nutrition plan. My goal is to help you understand the benefits of the food you are eating, all the while enjoying every single bite. I provide shopping, budgeting, meal preparation tips and more. I am your coach, teammate, and loudest cheerleader in leading you towards your health, weight, or sport performance goals. I just can't wait!!
