About Leslie
Hi, I’m Leslie! I’m a registered dietitian with six years of experience and advanced training, holding an MS in Sport and Exercise Nutrition and a BS in Human Nutrition and Dietetics. I specialize in working with active individuals at all levels—from competitive athletes to everyday gym-goers—as well as those simply looking to improve their health and relationship with food. As an athlete myself, I understand firsthand the challenges of body image concerns and performance-driven goals that can lead to underfueling and an unhealthy preoccupation with food. My passion is helping clients fuel their bodies for performance with practical, non-restrictive nutrition strategies—while still fully enjoying food. Outside of the clinic, you can find me playing beach volleyball, lifting weights or doing Pilates at the gym, and chasing around my toddler boy. I believe nutrition should fit your life, not the other way around, and I’m excited to get to know you.
Approach to care
My care philosophy centers on evidence based practice and empathetic partnership. I stay current with research and tailor plans to you, the whole person with your goals, values, and life. I’ll work with you to build sustainable habits that honor your body's needs and avoid dieting culture. You can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where I translate science into practical steps. I educate you so you can make informed choices that last, supporting your mental and physical well being.
Your first session with Leslie
In the first session, I’ll review your medical history, do a deep dive into your relationship with food, establish short-term goals, and review lab work and biometrics. This is a judgment-free, low-pressure conversation where I listen and you share what matters most to you. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we meet; I’ll meet you where you are and map out 1 or 2 realistic next steps with you. I’ll set you up for steady progress and lasting change.
