About Laura

Hi, I am Laura. I am a Registered Dietitian with 12 years of experience, grounded in a Bachelor of Science from Baylor University. I have practiced in clinical and hospital settings, including cardiac rehab, NICU, and pediatric hospital teams, caring for patients from preterm infants to older adults. In my free time I treasure family time with my husband and our two kids, and we love exploring local attractions and restaurants. I enjoy walking, cooking, and shopping, and I’m passionate about helping people nourish their bodies in realistic, sustainable ways.

Approach to care

My care philosophy centers on realistic and sustainable changes. I am committed to an empathetic and warm approach, meeting you where you are and moving at a pace that fits your life. As a busy mom myself, I understand how hard it can be to focus on your own health and the long-term health of your loved ones. We'll use an evidence-based framework to translate science into practical steps. I use a HAES (healthy at every size) lens that honors your body and focuses on behaviors rather than weight alone. What sets me apart? Having over a decade of experience with all ages, most recently in the NICU and Pediatric populations. Have you been encouraged to follow up with a dietitian for your children? I'm here to help and follow along!

Your first session with Laura

Our first appointment is all about you. We will start by reviewing your medical history, medications, labs, and current eating patterns to understand what matters most. I want to get to know you and your daily life, so we can tailor a realistic plan that fits your schedule. We will explore short-term goals together and outline an attainable action plan, including how we’ll track progress and adjust as needed. No pressure, no judgment, just a warm, collaborative conversation about your health and goals.

Education

Bachelor's of Science from Baylor University

Hobbies

In my free time, you’ll almost always find me soaking up family time. I’m married to my high‑school sweetheart, and together we get to raise two amazing kids who keep us busy and entertained. As a family, we love discovering local attractions and exploring restaurants. I personally enjoy walking, running, cooking, and shopping.
