About Chris

Hi, I’m Chris—a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist based in Bristol, PA. With a background as a professional chef and years of clinical experience, I blend culinary creativity with evidence-based nutrition to help you feel your best. Whether you're managing diabetes, working toward weight goals, or simply trying to eat better, I offer personalized, judgment-free support that meets you where you are. Since 2020, I’ve helped clients across the greater Philadelphia area build healthier habits that actually stick—no crash diets, no guilt. Let’s work together to make food a source of strength, not stress. Book your first session today and start building a healthier relationship with food—one satisfying meal at a time.

Approach to care

I believe nutrition care should never be one-size-fits-all—because your life isn’t. I take a personalized, flexible approach that puts you at the center. Together, we’ll create a plan that aligns with your goals, your lifestyle, and what matters most to you. As your needs change, we’ll adapt your plan—so it always works with you, not against you. My role is to guide and support you every step of the way, helping you make sustainable changes that lead to lasting results. Let’s build a plan that fits your life—not the other way around. Ready to get started? Schedule your first session today and take the first step toward feeling your best.

Your first session with Chris

Your health journey starts with a conversation that’s all about you. During our first session, we’ll take the time to really understand your story—your background, current concerns, and what you’re hoping to achieve. From there, we’ll work together to set realistic, meaningful goals that reflect your values and fit your life. This session isn’t just an intake—it’s the start of a partnership built on trust, support, and a personalized plan designed to help you make lasting progress. Ready to take the first step? Book your initial session today and let’s start creating a plan that works for you—not just on paper, but in real life.
