After graduating from Middlebury College, I was awarded a Thomas J. Watson Traveling Fellowship and enjoyed a year abroad before earning a Master of Science degree from Columbia University’s Institute of Human Nutrition, College of Physicians and Surgeons. I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and have worked in hospital, clinic, and private settings with groups and individuals. I am a certified Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine, and love to train teens and adults. I created the Bod Squad, a fitness and nutrition empowerment program for teen girls as well as Talk the Walk, an outdoor fitness and group counseling program for women.

In addition to private nutrition therapy and personal training, I have appeared in print and on television. I’ve lectured widely to health professionals, faculty and students in area schools and colleges, as well as been a featured speaker in corporate conferences and community groups throughout the northeast including the Harvard / Tufts Medical School conference on Obesity and Eating Disorders. I am a member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND), the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), the Westchester Dietetic Association, and the International Federation of Eating Disorder Dietitians (IFEDD).
