About Jennica
Hi! I'm Jennica. Born and raised in the South to Latino parents, I embrace both Southern hospitality and South American culture. I’m a proud wife, mom of two daughters, and dog mom to a Border Collie. My family loves hiking, camping, and playing sports together. As a dietitian, I’m passionate about helping people adopt healthier lifestyles while still enjoying the things they love.
Approach to care
As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, I’m passionate about helping others feel confident in their food choices while improving their health. Whether it's weight loss, muscle gain, or managing chronic conditions, I’m here to simplify the science of nutrition and support your journey to better health.
Your first session with Jennica
In an appointment with me, you can expect a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can be completely truthful about your experiences and goals. I understand that each person’s journey is unique, and I’m committed to respecting your individual situation. I will never judge your choices, and together, we’ll create a personalized approach that fits your needs. My goal is to provide guidance at a pace that feels right for you—challenging, but not overwhelming. We’ll focus on sustainable, long-term changes that build a foundation for lasting health, rather than chasing quick fixes or temporary solutions.
