I’m incredibly honored to share that I was voted AUSTIN’S #1 NUTRITIONIST in Austin Fit Magazine’s Best of 2025 — and this marks the fifth year Nutritional Zest has ranked in the top.✨

This means more to me than you know.

Not because of the award itself, but because of what it represents: the work, the healing, the stories, the transformation, the people.

My journey into nutrition wasn’t glamorous.

It was born from years of eating disorders, chronic stress, anxiety, burnout, and feeling completely disconnected from my own body. I was living in survival mode — no purpose, no direction, no real center. And for a long time, I genuinely didn’t believe I could change.

Using food as medicine, rebuilding my routines, learning how light, stress, sleep, gut health, and nervous-system regulation actually shape our biology — that’s what turned everything around. Bit by bit, I repaired my body, my mind, my relationship with food, and eventually, my entire life.

And helping others do the same has become the greatest purpose I’ve ever known.

To be recognized for that work — year after year — is something I don’t take lightly. It reminds me why I show up. Why I research. Why I teach. Why I pour everything into my clients and my programs.

Because healing is possible. Real, lasting healing. I have lived it. I have witnessed it. And it’s the honor of my life to guide people through it every single day.

To everyone who voted, supported, referred friends, trusted me, or has been part of this community — thank you. Truly. I wouldn’t be here without you.

And to anyone struggling with your own health issues right now…

Please know this: you can heal.

I’ve been in the darkest places with food, hormones, digestion, stress, and self-worth, and I found my way back. You can too. And I’d be honored to walk with you on that journey.
