Of all the jobs I dreamt of having, a nutritionist was not one of them. I was raised in a meat, potatoes, and canned corn kind of family that never saw many fresh veggies. However, when a family member was diagnosed with an advanced cancer I dove into the world of integrative and alternative care. I received my Certified Nutritional Practitioner (CNP) training from the Institute of Holistic Nutrition in 2013 and carry the Natural Nutrition Clinical Practitioner (NNCP) designation through the Canadian Association of Natural Nutritional Practitioners (CANNP). Additionally, I have attained the Certified Holistic Cancer Practitioner (CHNP) designation through Edison Institute of Nutrition. I most recently studied under Dr Aviva Romm in the Women’s Integrative & Functional Medicine Professional Training Program. I began my nutrition career working as an online educator and developed online dietary programs for over 10,000 individuals with LULORA and was a nutritionist and the Vancouver Island Clinical Director at InspireHealth, a supportive cancer care centre partially-funded by the BC Ministry of Health, from 2013-2019. I worked alongside medical doctors, clinical counsellors, kinesiologists, and a team of holistic nutritionists. I have also been a faculty member at Pacific Rim College since 2015 and teach numerous courses in their three year holistic nutrition diploma program and four month doula and herbal certificate courses. My clinical practice focuses on women's health, including hormone balancing, fertility, prenatal & postpartum care, menopausal support, and hormone-sensitive cancers, and is primarily conducted through one-on-one nutrition counselling. When not chatting about nutrition, I’m likely spending time with my kids, daydreaming about home improvements, or admiring flowers in the garden.
