About Kelsey

Nutrition and practical problem solving drew me into this work early, and over 12 years as a Registered Dietitian I’ve learned to meet people where they are. I hold an MBA and a Bachelor of Science, and my professional path includes community health and corporate wellness programs. As an RDN and LDN I aim to translate research into realistic plans, and outside of work I recharge by reading, spending time outdoors, and trying new physical activities. I focus on building sustainable habits we can maintain together.

Approach to care

Food matters beyond calories. I use evidence-based guidance to create clear, attainable steps while keeping our conversations warm and nonjudgmental. We’ll partner to build sustainable habits that honor Health At Every Size, and I consider mental, emotional, and lifestyle factors alongside the science. I’m direct and action-oriented when it helps, and I prioritize education so you understand the why behind each step and feel empowered to make long-term changes.

Your first session with Kelsey

Expect a relaxed, thorough conversation where I review your medical history and any lab work or recent biometrics, and we’ll clarify a few short-term goals that feel realistic for your life. This is a judgment-free, low-pressure visit, so you don’t need to have everything figured out or bring perfect records. We’ll leave with practical next steps, a plan to track progress, and a sense of how we’ll work together going forward.
