Hi, I’m Jessica, and I’m excited to welcome you to my practice. Since becoming a registered dietitian in 2016, I've had the privilege of working with a wide range of patients, but it was my time at WIC that truly sparked my passion for pediatric nutrition. There, I found immense satisfaction in helping infants grow into healthy, thriving children. I supported parents with practical strategies on various issues including choosing the right formula, introducing solids, navigating allergies, addressing low iron levels, managing picky eating, and ensuring their child's growth stays on track.

Becoming a mom myself gave me a whole new perspective. I know firsthand how stressful mealtime struggles can feel—and how worrying it is when your child’s growth starts to dip on the chart. I’ve been there, and those experiences drive my passion for guiding families with clarity, confidence, and understanding.

My approach is all about teamwork. We’ll set realistic goals that fit your family’s lifestyle, create a supportive space where you feel confident, and celebrate the small wins along the way. Parenting is hard, but feeding your child doesn’t have to feel impossible—and I’m here to help every step of the way
