I believe in the power of education to create lasting change. My approach is built on empathy, empowerment, and evidence-based guidance—helping clients manage fertility challenges, gestational diabetes, and overall pregnancy nutrition through balanced eating and sustainable lifestyle habits.
My Story
After completing my Master’s in Nutrition from New York University in 1991, I had planned to pursue a PhD. But at that pivotal moment in my life, I felt God leading me to focus on starting a family rather than continuing my academic journey.
My own path to motherhood was not easy. I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in my early 20s, experienced gestational diabetes during pregnancy, and went through a long labor and delivery. After seven years of marriage, I was blessed with my first child–a true gift from God, born on Christmas Day.
Conceiving my second child was another challenge, and when I finally did, I named him Zachary, meaning “God remembered.” Today, I’m blessed with three wonderful children who continue to grow in their faith and purpose.
My personal journey through infertility, PCOS, and gestational diabetes has shaped not only my life but also my calling as a dietitian specializing in fertility and pregnancy nutrition. Guided by faith, my mission is to educate, encourage, and empower others through compassionate, evidence-based nutrition care — helping each person walk their own path toward health, healing, and hope.
