Are you confused about how and when to start your baby on solid foods, or looking for ways to reduce family mealtime stress? If you need guidance on navigating picky eating and feeding your kids well without losing sight of your own nutrition needs, you’ve come to the right place!

I help moms raise healthy, confident, adventurous eaters and tend to their own maternal nutrition needs as well. As a single mom of three girls and a registered dietitian nutritionist with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Nutrition, I specialize in baby-led weaning and picky eating. If chaos, stress, and fatigue around food and feeding is what’s on your plate these days, I get it and have been there!

Nutrition is actually my second career. For my first 10 years post-Northwestern University undergrad, I worked in the performing arts (AEA, SAG-AFTRA) as a singer, actor, dancer and model based in New York. I traveled the country with national tours and appeared in regional theater and Off-Broadway shows, independent feature films and commercials. Throughout, I felt pressure from the industry 367.
