You don’t just have to survive, you can thrive.
My path to this career began with my own health journey and that of those closest to me - years of frustrating symptoms, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, fatigue, skin conditions, insomnia and autoimmune conditions that traditional medicine couldn’t fully explain. After trying countless approaches, I watched helplessly as myself, my friends, and my family became more and more desperate for answers. It occurred to me that there has to be another way. A way that respects our body’s innate ability to heal. A way that looks deeper to determine what contributes to symptoms that seem to have no connection or explanation.
Through this journey I have discovered the value of looking beyond symptoms, and instead looking to the root cause in order to support the body’s foundations of healing. I began uncovering things that standard care missed - like hidden infections, digestive dysregulation, heavy metal burdens, and nutrients that were out of optimal range, all of which were holding the body back from finding balance.
Now, I help people uncover the root causes of their symptoms and feel confident in their health again. I offer personalized support that is grounded in science, using tools like the Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire, Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis, and GI MAP + MRT (gut testing) to get clear answers, not just manage symptoms.
Together, we create a practical, step-by-step plan that respects you as an individual. This personalized protocol, focusing on a nutrient-dense diet, targeted supplements and lifestyle support, will help you get back to feeling like yourself again.
You don’t have to just survive- you can THRIVE!

The Power of Using HTMA and GI-MAP Together
Many functions in the body have cause and effect relationships. Impaired digestion directly impacts the body’s ability to absorb and utilize essential nutrients effectively. Similarly, deficiencies in key minerals directly effect the body’s ability to effectively breakdown and digest foods to allow for proper nutrient absorption. The HTMA test gives an invaluable look into the mineral balance in the body and what key minerals may need to be supported. The GI-MAP provides in depth information about digestive function and microbiome balance. Pairing these functional tests together allows me to provide targeted support to optimize digestive function while providing the body with the mineral building blocks it needs to heal.
