About Dani

Hi, I’m Dani, a Registered Dietitian with 6 years of experience. I earned my BS in nutrition science from Lehman College and have worked in both clinical hospital settings and community health programs. I’m proud to hold the RDN and CDN credentials, which reflect my commitment to evidence-based practice and ongoing learning. I believe food is about nourishment, connection, and everyday choices that fit real life. When I’m not seeing patients, I enjoy learning about new recipes and finding balance in a busy schedule. I’m glad you’re here.

Approach to care

My care is grounded in evidence-based science and delivered with warmth. I believe in a collaborative partnership where we translate research into practical steps you can actually use. I support a Health At Every Size lens, focusing on behaviors, health, and joy rather than quick fixes or dieting culture. We’ll consider the whole person, including sleep, stress, schedule, and food environment, and tailor strategies that fit your life. I aim to educate so you feel confident making informed choices, and I’ll be there to guide you with empathy as you build sustainable habits that last.

Your first session with Dani

Think of our first visit as a conversation designed to help us get to know you. We’ll review your medical history and dive into your relationship with food, your routines, challenges, and short-term goals. This is a judgment-free, low-pressure space where you don’t need to have it all figured out yet. Together we’ll set 1–2 realistic goals for the coming weeks and outline a practical plan you can begin implementing right away. We’ll walk you through what to expect and how we’ll work together to make steady progress.
