About Julia

Hi, I’m Julia! I’m a registered dietitian with over 11 years of experience working in professional sports, including time with the Chicago Cubs and the Houston Rockets. During that time, I guided athletes in fueling to perform at their highest level, recover faster, and stay at the top of their game. Now, I bring that same approach to the clients I work with through Nourish. My focus is on helping you optimize your life through simple, sustainable nutrition strategies that actually fit your lifestyle. Whether you want to improve energy, support your activity, or build habits that last, I’ll create a plan tailored to you. I earned my master’s in Professional Practices of Dietetics, and I’m passionate about making nutrition practical so you can feel and perform your best every day.

Approach to care

My approach to care is focused on making nutrition simple, sustainable, and realistic for your lifestyle. I want food to be something that supports your energy, activity, and overall well-being—not something that feels stressful or restrictive. I work with clients to create personalized plans that feel approachable while also introducing new foods, strategies, and ideas they may not have tried before. Along the way, I help debunk common myths and limiting beliefs about nutrition so you can feel more confident and empowered in your choices. With over a decade of experience fueling professional athletes, I know how important it is to create routines that are both effective and practical. My goal is to help you optimize your life by building lasting habits, expanding your perspective on what nutrition can look like, and finding balance that truly works for you.

Your first session with Julia

In our first visit, I want to learn about your life, routines, and reality so I can create a plan that truly fits you. We’ll talk through your goals, current eating habits, and any challenges you’ve faced with nutrition in the past. My goal is to design a plan that feels sustainable long term—something you can actually stick with, not just a quick fix. Together, we’ll also explore new foods, ideas, and strategies that may support your health in ways you haven’t tried before, while also addressing any limiting beliefs or nutrition myths that might be holding you back. By the end of our session, you’ll leave with clear, realistic steps tailored to your goals, and the confidence that you’re moving forward with a plan built for your life.
