About Michelle

Howdy, I’m Michelle and I am a Registered Dietitian and a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist based in Texas. I currently work in an endocrinologist office, where I specialize in management of Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, continuous glucose monitoring and insulin pump management, and individualized nutrition care.

Approach to care

I break nutrition down into simple, practical steps that make change feel manageable, not overwhelming. My goal is to help you make small, lasting changes that fit your life and move you closer to your health goals. Whether you're dealing with a new diagnosis, balancing a million things, or just fed up with one-size-fits-all advice, I’m here to meet you where you are. I mix science-backed tips with a lot of empathy and real-life strategies that work—no matter how busy you are. I bring a unique perspective and empathy to my practice, having seen firsthand the challenges of managing diabetes through several family members who live with both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.

Your first session with Michelle

Our first appointment is all about you. We'll create a warm, low-pressure space to explore your relationship with food, review your medical history, and clarify your goals. You don’t need to have everything figured out yet. We’ll establish short-term goals together and outline practical steps to start making progress. I’m here to listen, answer questions, and support you as we design a plan that fits your life and values.
