About Skylar

With over a decade of experience as a Registered Dietitian, a former professional soccer player, and current HYROX athlete, I strive to bring a unique blend of clinical expertise, athletic insight and real-life experience. My journey—on the field, in the clinic, and in everyday life—has shaped my passion for helping others live healthier, happier lives. I’m driven to show my clients how nutrition can be a powerful tool for improving both physical performance and mental well-being.

Approach to care

My approach is designed to help clients thrive—physically, mentally, and emotionally—by guiding them toward a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle. I focus on addressing the root causes, not just the symptoms, and take a whole-person view of wellness. With a blend of realistic strategies and evidence-based nutrition, I support clients in achieving the goals they set for themselves. Every step of my method is personalized, prioritizing your health, your journey, and your long-term well-being. Whether working with competitive athletes, weekend warriors, or individuals just starting their wellness journey, I am passionate about helping clients connect the dots between food, movement, mindset, and results.

Your first session with Skylar

Our session will be engaging, thoughtful, and tailored entirely to you. I'll ask plenty of in-depth questions—not to overwhelm you, but to truly understand your goals, habits, lifestyle, and challenges. This allows me to create a personalized, realistic nutrition plan that fits your life and sets you up for long-term success. My goal is to make you feel heard, supported, and empowered from day one.
