About Richard

Hi, I'm Richard. I'm a Registered Dietitian based in Austin, Texas, with an MS in Human Nutrition from Texas State University, and I hold the RD credential with the LD designation. In my one year of experience I’ve worked across community health, clinical hospital settings, private practice, and research/academia, and I love how each place taught me to meet people where they are. When I’m not helping clients, you’ll find me with a good book, experimenting in the kitchen, or playing the piano. I’m grateful to bring a science-informed, approachable approach to nutrition that honors your goals and your life.

Approach to care

I believe care should be collaborative, evidence-based, and sustainable. I ground my guidance in current research and proven protocols, while staying curious about your unique story. I practice with warmth and without judgment, meeting you where you are and helping you turn knowledge into concrete actions. My approach centers on Health At Every Size principles, focusing on behaviors, nourishment, sleep, and stress management rather than a number on the scale. I aim to educate you so you feel empowered to make decisions that fit your life and values and support lasting change.

Your first session with Richard

Think of our first appointment as a welcome conversation, not an exam. We'll talk about your relationship with food, your daily routines, and what you hope to change, in a judgment-free space. You don’t need to have everything laid out beforehand; we’ll figure out what matters most together. I’ll help you set one or two short-term goals that feel doable, and we’ll build a practical plan designed for long-term success. By the end, you’ll know what we’re aiming for and how we’ll get there.
