About Esteban

Hi, I'm Esteban! I'm a Registered Dietitian originally from a small, diverse town in Chicagoland. I love to provide people individualized nutrition education tailored to their individual needs. Nothing is more satisfying to me than seeing clients successfully reach their nutrition-related goals. I obtained my Master's in Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics from NYU and completed a years worth of Dietitian training at James J. Peters VA Medical Center in The Bronx. These experiences provided access to diverse populations alongside strengthening my clinical knowledge and application. To add, I'm a son of two Mexican immigrants, so I understand how important it is to not only be culturally-sensitive so my clients, but also empathetic, and to understand each and everyone of my clients so I can help provide them with options that are feasible for them. My strengths in Dietetics are in: Diabetes (Prediabetes, T2), Weight Management, Sports-Nutrition, Gut-Health, and more!

Approach to care

My approach to care begins with getting to know my clients with every single session. To do this, I allow clients to do most of the talking through open-endedness! The more I learn about my clients, the more I can help them achieve their goals through a clinically-rich, yet personable and achievable nutrition plan.

Your first session with Esteban

In our first session, we'll introduce one-self to another so we can connect holistically. I'll discover your current nutrition-related goals, motivations, stages of change, and challenges so we can come up with the ideal plan for you! Lets find out what your favorite (and most hated, haha) foods are, your food allergies/intolerances, life-roadblocks (scheduling, sleep, meal-planning, etc.), cultural-restrictions (halal, kosher, etc.), and so much more! From there, we can tackle any nutrition-related goal!
