What Is Functional Nutrition?

Functional nutrition is a personalized, root-cause approach to wellness that looks at the whole body-not just symptoms. By understanding how your unique biology, lifestyle, and nutrition work together, we use food, habits, and natural support to help your body heal, rebalance, and thrive. 

My Story

 

From a very young age, I was fascinated by how the body works—anatomy, biology, and the incredible ways we are designed to heal. As I raised my children, that passion naturally grew. Every summer we tended a garden overflowing with fresh vegetables, and every fall we filled our shelves with jars of homemade goodness we canned ourselves. Nourishing my family from the ground up taught me the true power of food as fuel.


My interest in health and fitness deepened when I became pregnant with my first child. I stayed active through aerobics right up until delivery, and that experience opened my eyes to how profoundly movement supports the body. Years later, my curiosity expanded into herbology, where I discovered the remarkable healing properties of herbs and how they can support every system in the body.


After a rewarding 30-year career in the graphic design industry—and building a successful sign business—I felt a pull I could no longer ignore. Helping others achieve wellness has always been a passion simmering beneath the surface. So I finally decided to follow that calling. I trained at the Functional Nutrition Alliance and became certified, allowing me to step fully into my dream of serving others as a holistic practitioner.


Today, I bring together everything I’ve learned—decades of hands-on nourishment, movement, herbal wisdom, and functional nutrition—to help others discover what wellness truly feels like. My journey has taught me that healing is possible, and I am here to guide, support, and empower you every step of the way.
