About Samantha

Hi, I’m Samantha! I’ve been a registered dietitian for 10 years, inspired by my great aunt - an RD in the 1950s. Her stories of empowering people resonated with me and even as a kid, I was drawn to food and nutrition. Being a dietitian isn’t just a job to me—it’s my passion. I’ve specialized in bariatric nutrition for most of my career, and I love guiding clients through physical, emotional, and mental transformations. Seeing them rediscover themselves is incredible, and I believe everyone has the power to transform their health in a lasting way.

Approach to care

My approach is personal and tailored, ensuring every recommendation fits your life, motivations, and priorities. Together, we’ll work on small, attainable goals that lead to meaningful, lasting change. Whether you’re deeply motivated or just starting to find your “why,” I’ll help uncover what drives you at your core. My expertise lies in setting manageable goals, building confidence, and creating sustainable habits—one step at a time.

Your first session with Samantha

You can expect to be truly heard during our sessions. I create a judgment-free space where your story, challenges, and goals come first. Our first session is all about YOU—your goals, motivations, and obstacles. We’ll discuss your daily life and set small, realistic goals to keep you moving forward, along with a long-term plan to keep you looking ahead. I’m excited to partner with you on this journey and help you achieve lasting change. It’s time to make YOU a priority again—we’re in this together!

Education

I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Connecticut (Go Huskies!). My graduate research focused on using telehealth to promote small behavior changes in children through tailored health messaging.

Hobbies

When I’m not working, I love woodworking with my partner. Together, we build “mud kitchens” for kids—projects that let me use the creative side of my brain after sitting at a desk all day, while also absorbing some of that good Vitamin D! I also adore spending time with my two mischievous orange kittens, who bring endless joy to my day.
