About Kara

I am a Registered Dietitian and Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. I entered the field of nutrition because of my personal struggles with disordered eating in high school. Learning to develop a healthier relationship with food was a game changer for me. That experience sparked my passion for nutrition, and itā€™s been driving me ever since. I have been working in weight management and diabetes for 25 years. My family is my North Star, I am an exercise enthusiast who loves to be lazy, and my stress go-to is Diet Coke (shhhh, don't tell anyone).

Approach to care

I strive to meet my patients where they are, focusing on clear, personalized SMART goals (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-sensitive). I believe in tailoring care to each individual and setting realistic expectations for outcomes. Using motivational interviewing, I collaborate with patients to develop practical strategies for success. I see the process as a marathon, not a sprintā€”a journey worth pacing. So, bring your snacks and magazinesā€”weā€™re in this together!
