I started Active Bariatric Nutrition after hearing so many bariatric clients express frustration and a sense of feeling lost when dealing with the challenges of living an active lifestyle after surgery. I frequently saw how the lack of one-on-one nutrition support was missing at the time it is the most critical – after the surgery.

I have 15 years of experience as a Registered Dietitian where I worked clinically with bariatric patients pre and post surgery and concurrently as a sports dietitian at the collegiate level for elite athletes.

With Active Bariatric Nutrition, I've combined this unique skillset to help people safely and knowledgeably fuel their body to achieve their maximum fitness goals after bariatric surgery.
