Jess is passionate about helping individuals foster a positive relationship with food that incorporates intuitive eating, listening to your body’s hunger/fullness cues, and learning flexible eating habits to support overall nutrition.

She believes that physical, mental, and emotional health all play a role when it comes to listening to your body in order to develop a healthy relationship with both food and fitness. Her goal is to help more people find food freedom and to feel confident in their own skin.

Originally from Denver, Colorado, Jess completed her Bachelor’s degree at Colorado State University and went on to complete her Dietetic Internship through Lenoir-Rhyne University in South Carolina. Jess has also completed her Master’s degree in Nutrition and Exercise Science at Lipscomb University. She has worked with eating disorder and disordered eating for several years in an outpatient setting. Jess is also experienced in working with athletes and sports nutrition.

When she is not working or in school, Jess enjoys the outdoors and being active, spending time with friends and family, and trying out new restaurants! Jess currently lives in Denver, CO and can see clients virtually in several different states including TN, KY, MI, AZ, TX, OR, CO, AR, and IL.
