About Kelly

Hi, I’m Kelly—a registered dietitian with over seven years of experience helping people improve their health and quality of life through nutrition. I’m a passionate believer in the healing power of food, and I’ve dedicated my career to supporting patients in the prevention and treatment of a wide range of health conditions. My areas of expertise include plant-based nutrition and the dietary management of chronic kidney disease, end-stage renal failure, and cardiovascular disease. Outside of my work as a dietitian, I run a 501(c)(3) nonprofit sanctuary for farmed animals. In my free time, you’ll often find me reading, spending time in nature, and continuing to learn everything I can to better serve my patients.

Approach to care

I truly care about the people I work with, and I will stand beside you as a partner in your health journey. I meet every patient exactly where they are and provide loving guidance backed by science and years of clinical experience. My mission is to empower you to make lasting changes that actually fit your lifestyle. We’ll work together to navigate challenges, build confidence, and create habits that support long-term health. Think of me as a friend who happens to be an expert in nutrition.

Your first session with Kelly

I can’t wait to get to know you—your story, your struggles, and your goals. In our first session, we’ll do a deep dive into your health concerns, eating habits, and lifestyle. Together, we’ll develop a personalized plan designed to overcome obstacles and move you toward the healthiest version of yourself. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and empowered—with a clear path forward. You deserve to feel better in your body, confident in your choices, and hopeful about your health. And I’m here to walk that journey with you.
