About Jillian

Jillian’s interest in nutrition began in high school as a competitive swimmer, where she discovered the powerful link between what we eat and how we feel, perform, and maintain overall health. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Food and Nutrition and a Master of Science in Human Nutrition from the University of Alabama. Jillian has experience helping clients achieve a wide range of goals, including healing their relationship with food, weight management, and managing conditions including Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Type 2 Diabetes. She also has experience working with active individuals to optimize exercise performance and recovery through nutrition. When she's not helping clients, Jillian loves to travel, work out, explore her city, and enjoy great food with friends and family.

Approach to care

Jillian's empathetic and collaborative approach helps clients achieve their goals through sustainable habit formation to maintain a healthy lifestyle over their lifetime. Believing that when people feel their best, everything in their life improves, she works to deeply understand each individual's unique experiences, perspectives, and goals. Jillian works to create a safe and inclusive space where clients feel supported and feel open to sharing their own thoughts and opinions. Jillian believes in empowering her clients to make realistic and sustainable changes to set them up for long-term success.
