About Jamie
Throughout my career as a Registered Dietitian, I have gained extensive experience in a variety of roles within the hospital setting, ranging from Clinical Dietitian and Clinical Nutrition Manager to Director. In addition, I have had the privilege of teaching nutrition courses at our local community college, furthering my commitment to education and wellness. Over the past 21 years, the aspect of my work that I have found most rewarding is providing personalized patient care, both in inpatient and outpatient settings. While I am dedicated to all areas of nutrition, my primary interests and expertise lie in Diabetes management, Heart Health, Enteral Nutrition (Tube Feeding), and General Nutrition.
