About Melissa

Hello! I am a registered dietitian with a diverse background in clinical nutrition, public health, and food service operations. I currently serve at the U.S Department of Veteran Affairs as an informatics dietitian. I oversee menu nutrient analysis, ensure regulatory compliance, and supervise health technicians. I am passionate about helping individuals build practical, realistic habits that improve their overall health. Whether you are working on weight management, heart health, fitness goals, or simply learning how to nourish your body with confidence, I'm here to guide and support you every step of the way.

Approach to care

I believe nutrition should feel empowering, not overwhelming. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practice, motivational coaching, and personalized goal setting. I meet clients where they are and help them build sustainable habits that fit their lifestyle, culture, and preferences. There is no "one-size-fits-all" plan. Nutrition is deeply personal. My goal is to help you feel confident in your food choices, supported in your journey, and equipped with tools that create long-term success.

Your first session with Melissa

We will spend time discussing your health history, lifestyle, eating patterns, medical background, and personal goals. Whether you're focused on weight management, heart health, improving lab values, fitness performance, or building healthier habits, I want to understand the full picture of what is important to you. By the end of the session, you'll leave with: 1. Clear, actionable next steps 2. A plan that fits your real life 3. Confidence in how to move forward This is not about perfection- it's about progress.
