Personalized Nutrition for NYC Individuals and Families

Rooted in Clinical Expertise and Cultural Understanding

As a Registered Dietitian and college nutrition professor in NYC, I specialize in translating complex science into practical, everyday meals. My practice provides Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) for conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and PCOS, alongside a compassionate, non-restrictive approach to weight and chronic condition management.

I don't believe in erasing your cultural food traditions to improve your health. Instead, I use evidence-based strategies that honor your heritage while helping you reach meaningful, sustainable health goals.

Nutrition should support your life—not take it over.

College Professor, Multicultural Mom, and Your Partner in Health

"As a college professor, I know the science. As a mom to a toddler and a woman of a multicultural background, I know the reality. I don't believe in 'one-size-fits-all' diets because your nutrition should be as unique as your DNA and as vibrant as your culture."

The Professor: I translate complex clinical research into bite-sized, actionable steps.

The Mom: I understand the "toddler-era" chaos and the need for quick, nourishing family meals.

The Global Citizen: My multicultural background with my Master education in Global kitchen; I celebrate diverse cuisines —no "food shaming" or cutting out cultural staples here.
