About Ashley

I first became interested in nutrition as a hobby during my freshman year in college, where I was originally studying art. My curiosity about nutrition eventually grew so much that I changed my career path to pursue a BS in Nutritional Sciences at Penn State University, leading me down the path of dietetics and eventually to RDN. For almost 5 years I worked in hospitals in Salem, Virginia, helping patients navigate complex health needs and make healthful choices more accessible. I put my role as a clinical dietitian on pause to advance my healthcare career in broader areas, during which my passion for health and wellness has only grown. Outside of work, I spend my time running, practicing yoga, hiking, reading, and playing with my cats, which helps me stay active and enjoy the small moments in life.

Approach to care

I believe in using science and compassion to help mold a lifestyle that works for people individually. I strive to help interpret the current research by keeping things practical and teachable, so you learn skills that fit your life. I like to encompass all aspects of health beyond food, including sleep, stress, and routines. Together, we will set clear goals to help build sustainable routines and habits that promote long-term health.

Your first session with Ashley

Expect a relaxed, judgment-free conversation where we review your medical history, current routines, and what you hope to accomplish. We'll clarify short-term goals and connect them to your longer-term expectations so each visit has a clear, practical focus. You don't need to have everything figured out beforehand. As an RDN I'll answer your questions and help prioritize what matters most.
