About Ana

Hi, I've been a Registered Dietitian for over 10 years, and I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate making delicious nutrient filled food choices. I have specialized experience in working with PreK- 12 students in school food service settings - this experience has made me passionate about working with individuals with special dietary needs and helping them navigate how to advocate for themselves at any age. I have experience creating meal plans for individuals with Type 1 Diabetes, Celiac Disease, Food Allergies and PKU. I'm also experienced and passionate about supporting pre-natal and postpartum women to ensure they're taking care of and nourishing themselves throughout the pregnancy and postpartum.

Approach to care

I recognize that food can be wonderful but also complicated and my goal is to help you navigate the science and flavors of what you're eating to meet your needs. That could be accountability, understanding food labels, advocating for your dietary needs, or creating a realistic meal plan specific for you. My goal is to create a partnership and if at any point you feel like I'm not the right "fit", that's OK too - I understand that finding a care provider is like finding a good pair of shoes, they all fit differently but most of all, they should be comfortable!

Your first session with Ana

Our first session is to get to know you and come up with the best plan to work with each other. We'll talk about your health history, lifestyle, relationship with food and any goals you would like to focus on. My hope is that you'll walk away from each session feeling supported and that you have a clear sense of what the next step is to meet you or your child's nutrition goals and needs.
