About Rose

Hi, I’m Rose, a Registered Dietitian with 15 years of experience helping people build healthier, more sustainable relationships with food. I earned my BS in Nutrition and Food Science from California State University, Chico, and I’ve worked in clinical hospital settings, community health programs, dialysis clinics, and long term care. As an RD and RDN, I combine science with empathy to create practical plans you can actually live with. When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy learning, exploring new recipes, and staying curious about how food fits into everyday life.

Approach to care

My care philosophy blends evidence based practice with warmth and collaboration. I rely on current research to guide recommendations, but I meet you where you are, honoring your values and daily realities. We'll work together to build lasting habits that fit your life, not a diet you abandon after a few weeks. I practice from a weight neutral, HAES oriented, holistic lens and emphasize education so you can make informed choices long after our sessions. You deserve care that is respectful, hopeful, and sustainable.

Your first session with Rose

Our first appointment is all about you. We'll review your medical history, lab work and biometrics, and discuss your current routines and goals. This is a low pressure, judgment-free conversation where you don't need to have it all figured out yet. I’ll listen, ask questions, and together we’ll set 1 to 3 short-term goals that feel doable and meaningful. You’ll leave with clarity about the next steps and a plan that supports lasting change.
