Compassionate care rooted in science and lived experience.
With over 15 years of clinical experience, I've dedicated my career to helping people heal their relationship with food. I earned my BS in Dietetics and Clinical Nutrition Services from San Francisco State University (2009) and completed my dietetic internship in 2011. During my time at SFSU, I spent a year abroad at the University of KwaZulu Natal in South Africa — taking nutrition courses and learning from the incredible local community.
I spent over a decade at Alta Bates Summit Medical Center — leading the adult eating disorder program (inpatient, PHP & IOP) from 2013 to 2020, then serving as the adolescent eating disorder dietitian through 2024. Since 2021, I've been an outpatient clinical dietitian at Kaiser Permanente Psychiatry, specializing in eating disorders. I've also maintained my private practice through Evolve Wellness Group for nearly 10 years.
As a former college athlete and competitive volleyball player, I understand firsthand the complex interplay of food, body, and performance. My approach integrates Health at Every Size (HAES), motivational interviewing, and Family-Based Treatment (FBT) — always grounded in compassion and evidence-based science.
