About Samantha

Nutrition and health have been a complicated, personal journey for me, and that experience led me to study nutrition and lifestyle medicine. With an MS in Lifestyle Medicine and Health Coaching and two years practicing as a holistic health coach, and one year as an RDN and LD, I’ve worked in hospitals, research, and academia. I’m passionate about preventative medicine. Outside of work, you’ll find me hiking with my dog, reading fantasy (Lord of the Rings is a favorite), or hunting down a new coffee roast. I bring curiosity, empathy, and real-world experience to every patient visit.

Approach to care

I balance science and compassion, grounding recommendations in current research while honoring the whole person. I prioritize evidence-based strategies, but translate them into clear, practical steps so we’ll have actionable goals that fit your life. I practice from a weight-neutral perspective, focusing on behaviors, sleep, stress, and lifestyle factors. I also teach the why behind changes, so together we build sustainable habits rather than short-term fixes.

Your first session with Samantha

I treat the first appointment as a judgment-free, collaborative conversation where we do a deep dive into your relationship with food and review your medical history at a comfortable pace. I respect your autonomy and see us as teammates, so we’ll explore past attempts, routines, and what matters most to you. You don’t need to have it all figured out. We’ll leave with a couple of realistic, personalized steps to get started together. Lasting health is a marathon, not a sprint, so for now let's breathe and enjoy the views.
