About Jody

Hi! I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist who was born and raised in Minnesota. I left the tundra-like weather for the bright Arizona sunshine. I became a Registered Dietitian in 2007 and furthered my education as a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist, ACSM-Health Fitness Specialist, and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist . I have worked in both residential and outpatient clinics for individuals with anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and bulimia nervosa. Additionally, I have experience in disordered eating, sports nutrition, diabetes, weight management, and exercise physiology. I work with both adolescent and adult populations.

I take an evidenced-based, weight-inclusive approach with a focus on a practical and sustainable strategies to help you reach your health goals.

Your first session with Jody

Our first meeting will consist of a Comprehensive Health Assessment. This assessment will allow me to ask you questions about your health history, health concerns, what you typically eat, how you like to move your body, your stress level, and your sleep patterns to get to know you better. Once completed, we will develop a clear action plan to help you advance toward your goals successfully.
