​​Certification/Education:

NASM Nutrition Coach Certification - August 2021

Health Sciences major currently studying at DePaul University with an ASL Minor (consultations available in ASL)

Nutrition Philosophy:

I’ve been vegetarian since the age of 9, but as I’ve gotten older, I’ve become fascinated by how to fuel my body properly to reach my goals. There is so much misinformation available on social media nowadays, and I want to help people develop behaviors and eating patterns that are nutritious and sustainable for themselves, and which are backed by science. There is no one right way to eat, and I want to help you find the behaviors that work for you!

Personal Interests: I practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, I love to read, and I’m very crafty. Within the last few months, I’ve started learning how to upcycle my clothes, meaning I alter them, deconstruct them, reuse fabric, or add embroidery in order to give them a new life. I also love trying new restaurants, swimming at the beach, and discovering new music.​
