About Gina

Hello! I'm Gina, a licensed and registered dietitian located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Previously, I worked as an exercise physiologist in weight management research. My love for cooking brought me back to school to pursue a Master's degree in nutrition, where I specialized my studies in Maternal and Pediatric Nutrition. If you are trying-to-conceive, pregnant, postpartum, or are looking to optimize you or your child's overall health and relationship with food- let's talk!

Approach to care

I have a weight-neutral approach to nutrition management. I understand weight can be a sensitive subject! Let's use the Nourish benefit of FREE quarterly labs to look at what's going on inside, as this gives us a great picture of your health, without obsessing over the scale. I also prioritize time spent exercising and sleeping to gauge your overall health and set goals for improvement. Tracking weight and logging food is optional if you decide to work with me.

Your first session with Gina

During your first session, we will dive into your day-to-day eating habits, preferences, and discuss your nutrition and health goals. The more I can learn about you, the better I can help! Expect to receive personalized nutrition advice with at least 2 clear goals we set together to move forward. Have your calendar handy to schedule follow-up appointments, as this is truly the best way to see results!
