About Marisa
Hi! My name is Marisa and I am happy you're here! I am a Registered Dietitian with experience working with high school, collegiate, and professional basketball athletes. I am passionate on encouraging and educating athletes and active adults on how to improve their physical performance and build healthy habits that are supportive to your lifestyle. As a former collegiate athlete, I understand how essential nutrition is to feeling your absolute best, in competition and out of competition!
Approach to care
My philosophy around nutrition is very holistic and whole-person centered. I like to look at all aspects of health along with nutrition, from sleep quality, stress management, hydration, and supplementation. I offer an empathetic and understanding approach to care, understanding how your background and beliefs are a foundational part of your journey to better health.
Your first session with Marisa
In our first session, you will be greeted with a bubbly personality and eagerness to get to know more about yourself! I will ask questions about your lifestyle, current and past nutrition habits, and goals - all with the intention of learning more about you so I can best support your goals.
