About
  • I am a registered dietitian (RD), certified diabetes educator (CDE), and person with type-1 diabetes (T1D).

    My private practice is diabetes specific, including type-1 diabetes, type-2 diabetes, LADA, MODY, gestational diabetes, pre-diabetes. I utilize both evidence-based and experiential knowledge. There is no judgement, but there is empathy and validation. I work with my clients in partnership to help them develop nutrition strategies specific to their needs and goals.

    I have a passion for type-1 diabetes, as well as extensive knowledge in all diabetes. Areas of focus related to diabetes include:

    • Sport nutrition
    • Pregnancy (pre, during, and post)
    • Eating disorders and disordered eating
    • Health at every size (HAES)
    • Transitions with T1D
    • General health

    I provide one-on-one services, packages, and workshops for people living in BC, as well as workshops for other healthcare professionals.
