About Me

I practiced medicine as a physician assistant for over 15 years. During that time, I found my passion for helping people heal themselves. After becoming convinced there had to be a better way to address weight-related health problems in both myself and my patients, I started a clinic-based weight management program, where I helped hundreds of people lose weight.

 

I started health coaching independently in order to be able to give my clients more of my time and energy.

 

I know the impact even small lifestyle changes can make on our health and the way we feel. I have experienced this personally and seen it in so many of my clients.

​

I hold a health coach certification from the National Society of Health Coaches and am a member of the Obesity Medicine Association. I did my physician assistant training at George Washington University, and I have training in functional as well as traditional medicine.
 

In my health coaching practice, I support clients along the (sometimes winding) path to sustainable weight loss. I do not practice medicine, give medical advice, or prescribe medication.
