PHilosophy:

I want to help you be your best healthy self! Often when we think of ‘diet’ and "healthy eating" we think ‘no fun’ ‘not allowed’ ‘can’t have that’. Diet actually means anything you eat – hence DIETititan. The trick is to think about what it is you are achieving be being able to be your healthy self - your life!

When working one-on-one, I work to make a tailored approach for you. We discuss your lifestyle, food preferences, budget, current symptoms, medical issues, and with your health care professional team. I answer questions about food and nutrition, while you are the expert of your life. If I don't make sense, I haven't done my work. I enjoy exploring what is a healthy relationship with food - for you, and balancing the challenge of a busy life with healthy eating.

I love a good excuse to get people excited! There are so many valuable and interesting topics about food that I am happy to build a presentation specific for your needs based on number of people, knowledge, and topics of interest. There’s nothing that gets me more fired up than talking about food so I would be happy to come and speak to your group. Want to know more about advocacy on food security and the food system? Check this out.

Feeling unmotivated but can't find a goal that is doable? Try me out. It’s time we started thinking about what we are saying yes to – like our bodies, our future quality of life, and more memories with our loved ones. Let’s start changing the way we look at health. 

Happy Tasting!
