For 32+ years, I have been helping women live better lives.
For 32+ years, I have been a dedicated Physician Assistant in the medical field. Experiencing firsthand the limitations of Western Medicine in addressing chronic health issues and driven by a passion for more effective solutions, I pursued board certification in functional medicine through The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) and the Metabolic Medical Institute twenty years ago. Recently, I also earned certification in both Clinical Weight Management and genetics.
I faced weight loss resistance and chronic health symptoms leading me to apply my education and personal experiences toward a transformative health journey, resulting in a 75-pound weight loss that I have maintained. This personal transformation fueled my mission to help women overcome chronic symptoms and weight loss resistance, leading to significant health breakthroughs.
I established an independent practice focused on a groundbreaking approach, The Health and Metabolic Reset Program, which integrates my comprehensive insights into functional medicine and personal health management. My revolutionary approach has helped over a thousand women lose weight, reclaim energy, and gain renewed self-confidence.
As a wife, mother, and grandmother who values family, the great outdoors, and continuous learning, my life is rooted in faith and a love for Jesus. This foundation guides me in spreading hope and healing through every aspect of my work, creating a unique and holistic approach to health.
I pour my heart, soul, and experience into helping women balance their hormones, restore vitality, feel and look great in their bodies.
My Journey
1988
Having excess weight has had a significant effect on my life. Being overweight, my hormones were not balanced and I developed chronic pain, insomnia, PMS and inflammation.
I had trouble getting pregnant and was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), elevated blood sugars, elevated blood pressure and was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and an autoimmune disorder.
I saw numerous specialists, had countless interventions, and was prescribed medication after medication, none of which solved the root issue.
2014
I became interested in understanding the triggers of disease development rather than just covering up symptoms.
I knew it was time to make a shift, so after educational training and an exam, I became Board Certified in Functional Medicine through the Metabolic Medical Institute/A4M. I also took several courses from IFM and other functional and environmental platforms. Through this, I gained insight into identifying and treating the root cause of illness.
After implementing a functional medicine approach in my wellness journey, the majority of my symptoms resolved; however, I still was not able to lose weight. I had tried dozens of diets, spent thousands of dollars doing various programs, taken numerous supplements, shakes, and hormones, and at times consumed under 500 calories a day while exercising up to 3 hours a day, only to feel more hopeless.
It wasn’t until recently that I realized the key to weight loss was resetting my metabolism…
2020
After decades of living in a body that felt foreign to me—riddled with pain, fatigue, inflammation, and metabolic resistance—2020 marked a true turning point. This was the year everything began to come into focus and something shifted.
I began to understand that I could train my body to burn fat for fuel—to reset my metabolism rather than continue fighting it. I turned my focus toward optimizing nutrition, lifestyle, and targeted therapies designed to reduce inflammation, balance hormones, and restore metabolic flexibility. By implementing a consistent, intentional routine rooted in science and personalized health insights, I was finally able to lose weight.
In just three months, I released 32 pounds. Over the following year, I lost a total of 75 pounds—and have maintained that weight loss to this day. My energy returned. My confidence grew. And most importantly, I felt like me again.
This transformation led me to create the 12-Week Metabolic Reset—a results-driven program for those ready to reduce inflammation, rebalance their hormones, reclaim their energy, and finally achieve sustainable weight loss.
Over the past year, I’ve enhanced the program with two breakthrough tools: continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) and comprehensive genetic analysis. These powerful additions allow clients to fine-tune their approach and uncover the deeper, often hidden, causes of chronic symptoms, hormonal imbalances, and weight loss resistance.
Through this journey, I’ve learned that lasting transformation isn’t about willpower or deprivation—it’s about decoding your body’s unique blueprint and responding with compassion, intention, and strategy.
My passion continues to grow as I expand the services we offer—empowering women, especially those 40 and beyond, to stop feeling like strangers in their own bodies and start healing from the inside out.
Because the truth is, healing isn’t linear. It’s layered. It’s personal. And when we finally learn to listen to our bodies rather than fight them, everything changes.
