About Jaden

Hi, I'm Jaden! I earned my BS in nutrition & dietetics at Auburn University (war eagle!) and an MS in nutrition from Boston University. I am dedicated to turning the latest science into practical guidance you can use daily. When I’m away from the desk, I love walks on the beach, trying new recipes, and kicking a soccer ball around with friends. I’m glad you’re here, and I’m excited to get to know yo!

Approach to care

My care philosophy centers on evidence-based, compassionate guidance that fits real life. I blend science with empathy, and I’ll be direct about what will move you forward while always meeting you where you are. We’ll focus on lasting habits over quick fixes, with an approach that honors your values and pace. I view you as a whole person, not a diet plan, and I’ll educate you so you can make informed choices long after our sessions end. Together, we will build resilience and understanding.

Your first session with Jaden

Our first appointment is a warm, judgment-free conversation about you. We’ll review your medical history and medications and take a deep dive into your relationship with food. You don’t need to have it all figured out; we’ll explore what has and hasn’t worked for you and set 1 or 2 practical goals to get started. I’ll translate science into plain language and tailor our plan to fit your life, preferences, and schedule. You’ll leave with clarity and a sense of collaboration.
