About Dina

After earning my MS in Nutrition Science from Columbia, I brought evidence-based care into hospitals, community health programs, and private practice. As an RDN and CDN with two years working directly with patients, I focus on practical solutions that fit busy city lives. Outside of sessions you’ll find me experimenting new gluten-free recipes, exploring NYC restaurants, on the hunt for the best matcha, staying active with Pilates, or laughing with my big Greek family.

Approach to care

Evidence, empathy, and clear action guide how we work together. I use current research to shape recommendations, while staying warm and judgment-free so you feel heard. We’ll focus on behaviors that support long-term health, honoring health at every size rather than pushing quick fixes. I take a whole-person view, connecting nutrition to sleep, stress, and routines, and I teach the why so you can make confident choices that stick.

Your first session with Dina

We’ll take a practical, low-pressure approach during our first visit, so you don’t need to have everything figured out. We’ll review your medical history and any lab work or biometrics, talk through your routine and symptoms, and identify what’s been frustrating or successful. Together we’ll set a couple of short-term goals and next steps you can actually use, so you leave feeling supported and clear about what comes next.

Hobbies

When I’m not working with patients, you’ll usually find me experimenting with gluten-free recipes, exploring NYC restaurants, or on the hunt for the city’s best matcha. I love staying active with Pilates and spending time with friends and my big Greek family.
