About Sulaima

With over 8 years of professional experience, I have developed a versatile skill set across various domains of dietetics. Growing up in a small town on the border of Mexico to Middle-Eastern immigrant parents, I've developed a deep appreciation for diverse cultural influences. I'm able to counsel with extensive knowledge regarding different food cultures while also individualizing. With a geniuine love of all things food related, I firmly believe in the transformative power of nutrition. We spend so much of our time around food, why not enjoy it!

Approach to care

I offer a variety of focus areas including medical nutrition therapy for different disease states, short term meal plans, grocery shopping guidance, meal preparations, and even pantry audits and cooking demos! I am notorious for arming my clients with the tools and knowledge necessary to navigate the world of food so that healthy living is not only accessible, but enjoyable.
