About Olivia

Hi there! I’m Olivia, your friendly dietitian with over 10 years of experience helping people nourish their bodies (with a little culinary flair, of course!). I’ve seen it all — from gastrointestinal disorders (including liver disease, chronic pancreatitis, irritable bowel, etc) to heart and kidney care, pre/post gastric bypass, GLP-1s, and cancer. I love helping people navigate nutrition with confidence and compassion. When I’m not at the hospital, you’ll find me teaching at a local culinary school, showing students that healthy food doesn’t have to be boring — it can be flavorful, satisfying, and full of creativity! At home, life’s a mix of kitchen experiments and Corgi chaos with my husband and our sassy pup, Emmy, who’s convinced she runs the house and loves to make guest appearances during virtual sessions. In my free time, I love wandering antique stores (hunting for treasures I definitely don’t need), baking sourdough, and planning new adventures — our latest was Iceland!

Approach to care

My philosophy as a dietitian is to meet you where you are — in a judgment-free space where progress matters more than perfection. I believe in creating realistic goals that fit your lifestyle and make healthy eating fun, flexible, and empowering — not restrictive or overwhelming.

Your first session with Olivia

During our first session, we’ll dive into your health history, explore your goals, and identify what might be standing in your way, so we can build a personalized plan that feels doable and genuinely rewarding. I’m so excited to work with you and help you reach your health goals — one delicious step at a time!
