About Maura
I am a Registered Dietitian with a master’s in nutrition and a concentration in Sports Nutrition. I had the opportunity to work in several different fields within the nutrition world, including the Division I athletic departments at UCONN as well as Central Connecticut State University. I grew up as an athlete and was always curious on how to properly fuel my body. I found there was a lack of knowledge of nutrition within the athletic world as well as unrealistic expectations on what an athlete should look like. As a part time swim coach, I now get to be the person I needed when I was growing up in various sports. Educating and helping athletes fuel their bodies properly to optimize their performance. In my free time you will find me exercising, going for walks, cooking, baking, being a swim coach and enjoying time with my friends and family
Approach to care
I am passionate about building healthy relationships with food and how it effects our mind and body. I meet clients where they are with their health journey and work with them to create a plan, they are comfortable with to become their best self. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools to make long lasting changes. I know nothing happens overnight and I am dedicated to your process of change.
