About Samantha

Hi, I’m Samantha. I’m a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with 2 years of experience, and I earned my BS in Dietetics from the University of Alaska Anchorage. I’ve supported people in hospital and community health settings, learning how nutrition shows up in everyday life and in the moments that matter most. I carry the postnominals LDN and RDN, reminders that science and care belong together. I’m grateful for the chance to walk alongside you as you explore food, health, and your unique goals in a warm, nonjudgmental space.

Approach to care

My care philosophy is grounded in evidence and empathy. I meet you where you are and respect your values, beliefs, and experiences. We'll translate the latest science into practical steps that fit your life, not the other way around. I practice with a Health At Every Size mindset, focusing on behaviors, nourishment, and well-being rather than a number on the scale. Education is central to my approach, so you leave each session with clear, doable actions and a better understanding of how food and health connect for you. Together, we build lasting habits.

Your first session with Samantha

Our first appointment is all about you. Think of it as a conversation that helps us shape a practical plan together, not a test or judgment. We'll review your medical history and any lifestyle factors that matter to your health, and we’ll establish short-term goals that are realistic and meaningful for your days. You don’t need to have it all figured out before we meet. I’ll listen, explain the options in plain language, and we’ll decide together what to try first. By the end, you’ll have a clear next step and a sense of partnership.
