About Kristy

I am a Registered Dietitian with over 20 years experience in working with people of all backgrounds. I started in outpatient dialysis and my career has progressed to include outpatient counseling for Diabetes, CKD, HTN, Heart Disease, and Weight Loss. I've also spent time in the acute care and long term care settings helping people reach their nutrition goals. Whether you are trying to figure out which foods to eat to preserve your kidney function, improve your blood pressure, get better control of your blood sugar levels, or just feel healthier, I'm here to help!

Approach to care

I believe making small, incremental changes over time produces the best results. There is no one-size-fits all approach when it comes to nutrition, so I want to work closely with you to develop a plan that meets your unique needs and is adaptable to your lifestyle. My goal is to help you create sustainable habits that lead to a healthier you.

Your first session with Kristy

You can expect a relaxed conversation. I want to get to know YOU! I will ask you to share some information about your lifestyle, nutrition history, current eating patterns, etc., and anything you would like to share that will help me understand what you are looking to achieve as we work together. We can discuss any questions you may have, and develop a plan to move forward.
