As a registered dietitian, I love helping people learn to appreciate foods that truly nourish our bodies, while also enjoying foods that help us celebrate the many reasons to smile in life.
Your goals + healthy relationship with food matter to me! You deserve to eat foods you enjoy, surrounded by your family and the community you love. If you’re confused by fad diets, too many contradicting nutrition theories or just tired of always putting in the work, but not maintaining the results — you’re in the right place.
Take a deep breath, those days are behind you! Let’s get you feeling your best and reaching the goals you’re meant to accomplish!
You can enjoy your journey to success with confidence. It doesn’t have to be a guessing game.

There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to serving you. We’ll work together to find the approach that is considerate of the social, emotional and spiritual factors in your life, while challenging you to keep moving in the right direction.

Custom Meal Plan
In this 12-week program, we’ll work together through various challenges in your weekly routines that ensure you improve your relationship with food, reach your goals AND maintain your progress. We’ll refine your lifestyle and our intervention with weekly reflections and feedback that will help you build on your nutrition knowledge and success.
A custom meal plan includes a lifestyle and preferences assessment, as well as the 7-day map of meals including the corresponding recipes and grocery list. You'll have an option to purchase an individual or family plan, which will be considerate of family dietary restrictions or allergies and portions for everyone in the household.
There’s knowing what to do, and then there’s making it happen.

DIETITIAN
I am a registered dietitian (RD) and board certified as a specialist in sports dietetics (CSSD) with a passion for sports nutrition and community wellness. After receiving a degree from Texas A&M University in nutritional sciences, I moved to Texas Tech University where I continued my education and earned a master’s degree in nutritional sciences, with a specialization in sports nutrition. I became certified as a registered dietitian through the Texas Tech University Dietetic Internship Program and served as a sports nutrition graduate assistant for Texas Tech. I remained in that capacity until moving to The University of Notre Dame, as their football dietitian, in 2014.
After a season with the Fighting Irish, I became the Director of Performance Nutrition at Louisiana State University (LSU) and spent 4 years with the Tigers working collaboratively with coaches and support staff to meet team and individual athlete’s nutritional needs.
As a collegiate sports dietitian, I realized the nutrition education needed for individuals beyond their college years. I started The Dish LLC in 2019 to help all individuals reach their personal wellness or performance goals, through a season of life where their professional careers and/or family are a top priority.
