About

Hello, and thanks for stopping by my site.  A bit about me…I am a board certified Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Health Coach living in Boston with my two teen-age daughters. Growing up with Italian born parents, not a day passed where I wasn’t reminded of how important food was for our health and daily enjoyment. My family has always believed strongly in the disease prevention benefits of plant based, Mediterranean-style scratch cooking, which is intuitively practiced and woven through the culture of many European countries. Personally, I practice (and am a huge proponent of) the Mediterranean eating pattern, which is proven to aid in staving off inflammation and chronic diseases. Evidence of this life-giving style of eating is seen among the 5 blue zone regions of the world and specifically in Sardinia. On this Italian island neighboring my father’s birthplace of Sicily, centenarians are found at nearly 10 times the per capita compared to the United States.

My path into the nutrition, health and wellness space was not a direct one. While I have always loved cooking, learning about the connection between food and health and strategies for longevity, in my previous life I worked in the world of corporate marketing. It wasn’t until tragedy struck and I lost my husband to cancer that I made the decision to pivot and transition into a career where I could share my passion for lifestyle medicine, as well as find more purpose and meaning in my work.

No matter your eating preferences, (vegan, vegetarian, paleo, keto, gluten free, grain free etc) my philosophy in practice is to meet my clients where they are, and help them achieve their health, wellness and nutrition goals. I believe there is no one size fits all approach towards nutrition, and a custom, personalized plan tailored to meet your lifestyle, preferences, and goals is the right one for you.

Recognizing that schedules are tight for most individuals and families, and preparing food from scratch is a luxury today’s busy society doesn’t always allow for, I partner with my clients to come up with personalized, creative solutions to address challenges that interfere with taking in a balanced, nutrient dense diet and reaching their health and wellness goals.

Having receiving my dietetics training at Massachusetts General Hospital, I am well versed in evidence based nutrition research and have experience in clinical practice working with a range of chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease and cancer.
