About Katarina

Hi there! I'm Katarina, and I'm so excited to get to know you! Born and raised in Northeast Ohio, I ventured south to attend the University of Alabama for both my bachelor's and master's degree. After that, I made the move to the beautiful Charleston, South Carolina, to kickstart my career as a registered dietitian (and live by the beach!). Over the years, I've had the privilege of gathering experience with a variety of clients, both inpatient and outpatient, but I'm especially passionate about performance nutrition, weight management and overall wellness. I believe in making healthy living enjoyable and sustainable, and I'm here to help you achieve your goals in a way that fits you!

Approach to care

When it comes to nutrition, I take a holistic approach because I believe health is about more that just what's on your plate. Life, stress, sleep, activity levels - everything plays a part in how we feel and how our bodies function. My goal is to work with you to create a plan that fits your lifestyle, aligns with your goals, and, most importantly, feels doable. I believe that true nourishment comes from fueling your mind, body and soul. It's about eating foods that energize and make you feel your best, but also enjoying the foods that bring you joy! I'm here to support you every step of the way as we find that balance together.

Your first session with Katarina

In our first session, we'll take some time to get to know each other! We'll chat about your goals, dive into your medical history, explore lifestyle factors and typical eating patterns. From there, we'll lay the foundation for a personalized care plan and set goals that we'll continue to build on in future sessions. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and excited as we start this journey together!

Master of Science in Human Nutrition. Bachelor of Science in Food and Nutrition.

Hobbies

My hobbies include staying active in nature - whether it's hiking, snowboarding or playing beach games. I love traveling to explore new places (especially if there's a mountain or beach involved!) or hitting up a new workout class. As a self-proclaimed foodie, I'm always on the lookout for the best new restaurants to check out, from hole-in-the-wall gems to trendy spots. And I'd love to add surfing to the list, but let's just say I'm still working on the whole "standing up on the board" part!
