Not long after middle school age, I started noticing the symptoms I was experiencing in my daily life were not normal. Every meal led to bloating and discomfort, and I would often get stomach pains but had no idea if I should be blaming food or something else. Eight years of pain and frustration, several doctors, and only a diagnosis of IBS led me to look towards alternative ways to heal. I worked with a Functional Medicine Nutritionist and already felt like a whole different person after just 4 months. Since experiencing such as amazing shift in my life, my passion for health, wellness, and fitness space has grown immeasurably. I knew that sharing the integrative and holistic world with others was my true calling.

Following my heart began with completing my Integrative Health Practitioner certification so that I can help busy women optimize gut health and balance hormones to reach their greatest mental health. It was such a long road to get to where I am today in my health and it didn’t have to take that long, so I use at-home functional medicine lab testing to get my clients on the right path right away. I find the way the body works together to be fascinating and am always looking to learn more from a client testimonial or a newly published study. My ultimate career goal is to help others become the fully functional being we are all meant to be in mind and body through integrative wellness.
