It is my joy to help others nourish themselves properly through all stages of care. My nutrition philosophy is that all foods fit. Food does more than just give us energy, it heals, it can help reduce or prevent chronic diseases, and it can bring people together. Understanding the unique nutritional needs and challenges that cancer patients face allows me to work closely with them to create a personalized nutrition plan with evidence-based recommendations to support their treatment and overall health.
