About Hilary

Originally from Illinois, I left the Midwest to specialize in improving athletic performance and nutrition knowledge for individuals striving to adopt a healthier, sustainable lifestyle in Colorado. I am a dedicated educator, traveler, and food advocate.

Approach to care

As a sports dietitian I use a hands-on approach to empower individuals to develop a balanced relationship between performance, lifestyle, and food —guiding you towards lasting wellness, plate by plate. In every scenario, whether it's training in the offseason, preparing for competition, or recovering from setbacks like injuries—I am dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment for elite athletes, weekend warriors, and athleisure enthusiasts alike to achieve nutritional goals.

Our sessions are an opportunity to share your goals & how I can help you get there. With your help, we will have a continued personalized plan tailored to help you succeed.
