Who I AM
I’m a 33-year-old Arizona native currently residing in the Phoenix area and I absolutely love the desert!
I’ve been with my high school sweetheart, Brett, for 19 years and we got married on Valentine’s Day in 2016 (fun fact: we share our wedding anniversary with my in-laws!). Brett is my best friend, biggest fan, and has always been 100% supportive of my big dreams and personal career goals.
I am a proud mom to three wonderful kitties and am a huge animal lover. In my free time, you can find me in the kitchen testing new recipes, listening to podcasts or audiobooks, reading my Kindle, enjoying the outdoors, taking an hour long bubble bath, playing video games, watching movies, or binging anime. (I’ve got eclectic hobbies, I know).
My husband and I love to travel and some of our favorite trips have been our honeymoon cruise to the Caribbean, Iceland, Russia, Canada, Italy, Greece, Turkey, and National Parks across the country like the Grand Canyon, Zion, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Glacier, and Bryce Canyon!
MYÂ journey
My health journey started 15 years ago when I first visited an OBGYN due to irregular periods and mild acne. Unbeknownst to me (and apparently my doctor), I had PCOS and hypothyroidism and it would take 10 years for me to get a proper diagnosis. Instead, I was immediately put on the birth control pill and that’s when my health started to spiral out of control.
Within a year, I developed severe cystic acne, and became desperate to treat it. I tried every prescription, topical, and in-office treatment my dermatologist could think of, besides Accutane. Â
After high school, my birth control side effects worsened further and caused me to develop severe anxiety and depression. I started having panic attacks and developed a binge eating disorder (it was the darkest time in my life). This season led me to start taking antidepressants, which only made matters worse inside my body. Between my Freshman year of high school and Senior year of college, I gained 50 pounds due to the medications, poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and a toxic “always busy” lifestyle.
When I graduated college, I was fed up with my body, feeling like garbage, and still not having any real answers as to why I was only getting worse. I realized that no one was going to advocate for my health besides me and took matters into my own hands. I spend the next 5 years learning everything I could about health, nutrition, fitness, lifestyle optimization, and women’s hormones.
Slowly, I put the pieces of my life back together, got off the medications (including the pill), lost the weight and kept it off, cultivated a loving relationship with my body, and decided to dedicate my life to helping other women do the same!
Why I'M HEREÂ
My personal health journey is what inspired me to become a Holistic Nutritionist and Functional Hormone Health Practitioner. I wish I would have had a guide of my own to help me navigate the vast world of health and nutrition, so I decided to become that person for others, including you!Â
The mission of my practice is simple: To help you heal your body from the inside out to cultivate the life of your dreams! When my health was at its worst, everything else in my life was in disarray, too. My relationships were strained, I was bouncing from job to job with no direction, I had no motivation, I hated my body, and I was constantly in some kind of pain (mental or physical). Once I started getting healthy and treating the root causes of my health issues, my whole world changed. I know this change is possible for everyone, which is why my signature program is called Best You EVER!
If learning more about me and my journey has gotten you fired up and excited about your own, I’m so glad!! I’d love to be a part of your transformation! Learn more about working with me here!
