For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to holistic health - an interest that deepened when my dad was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. In just three short months, he went from diagnosis to passing away at the age of 60. I later learned that pancreatic cancer is often considered a metabolic and, in some ways, preventable disorder. As devastating as this loss was, it guided me toward functional medicine, root-cause healing, and ultimately gave me hope for my own future and my children’s as well.

I am currently a board-certified nurse practitioner working with the geriatric population. Witnessing the aging process up close has been incredibly eye-opening and has further fueled my mission to focus on preventive, proactive care.

Over the past year, I worked toward and received my certification as a Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist. I can now interpret advanced labs - including hormone panels, GI-MAP testing, and metabolic wellness profiles.

If you struggle with hormone imbalances (hello postpartum anxiety and depression), gut issues, infertility, insomnia, insulin resistance, acne, fatigue, or brain fog, these tests can help uncover the root cause of what’s going on in your body - rather than relying on the confusing and generalized advice floating around Instagram from people with completely different biochemistry.

Please reach out if you have any questions or if you’re interested in getting to the root cause of your health concerns. I’d love to help support you on your wellness journey!
