About Suz

I am a former D1 athlete, current vegan of 13 years, and fitness instructor, who became a registered dietitian because I'm fascinated by the complex relationship between diet and health outcomes. Nutrition is not just about sustenance, but also about connection, culture, and identity. It's a multifaceted aspect of our lives, shaped by our upbringing, traditions, and personal experiences. I'm passionate about empowering patients to use nutrition as a tool for healing and recovery, acknowledging the unique emotional and personal factors that shape each individual's journey. My current work is in oncology with previous experience in sports nutrition.

Approach to care

Curiosity and compassion are essential elements of my practice. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where patients feel comfortable to show up as they are. I believe that food is morally neutral and what constitutes "healthy" is unique to each individual's circumstances. My goal is to empower patients by providing education, support and guidance, allowing them to make informed choices about their well-being. While I am here to support and educate, I also emphasize that personal responsibility for change ultimately lies with each individual.

Your first session with Suz

In our first session, you can expect a Comprehensive Nutrition Assessment. I’ll ask a range of questions to understand your lifestyle, medical history, and how you're feeling. This helps me assess your unique nutrition needs and start developing an individualized plan aimed at your health goals. Together, we'll set achievable short and long-term goals.
