ABOUT
Husband and father of four. I was active in my teens and 20s and then got married and my athletic pursuits became coaching my kids and less movement on my part. In my 30s I tried to eat “good” but put on an extra 35 pounds. Trying to follow conventional wisdom didn’t work so I started to embark on my quest for knowledge about nutrition, movement and mindfulness.
I discovered that it is not a one size fits all plan that works. We have to recognize the Bio-Individuality of each person which also changes over time and is not the same in your 20s-30s-40s-50s-60s-70s-80s-90s and beyond. As a health coach, I believe that abundant health incorporates both mind and body as a whole person. It is the food on our plates as well as nonfood sources, like relationships, careers, spirituality and physical activity, that truly feed us. The truth is that no one diet works for everyone. How many times have you attempted a diet or workout routine only to achieve minimal or temporary results? Did it leave you feeling discouraged and lost? Understand that we all have different needs, obstacles, and health concerns. The key to achieving your peak performance goals is to follow a plan that is customized for YOU! My passion is learning and empowering others with that knowledge to transform themselves.
You bring you - we bring the strategy!
My research has equipped me with extensive, cutting-edge knowledge in holistic nutrition, relationships, mindfulness, health coaching, prevention, movement and exercise. In my studies I learned a great deal about the food industry, innovative coaching methods, lifestyle management techniques, and over 100 dietary theories (including Paleo, jucing, macrobiotics, gluten-free, raw, whole30, elimination, ketosis, vegan, Atkins, slow carb, DASH, South Beach, Intermittent fasting and many more).
After the assessment I will create a customized plan for you tailored to your specific requirements with a strategy to incoporate into your current schedule. Optional specific meal plans and recipes can be created to meet your goals.

What I like about the program is the changes are not radical and the concepts are very easy to incorporate. Â Light exercise, high nutrition and taking time for myself combine to be a powerful trifecta for change

Minimum effective dose you will hear repeated as well as don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.  In this program you do’t have to kill yourself with exercise and you don’t have to worry about being perfect in the kitchen.

Lost 31 lbs in 4 months – Tracy C., 50
I thought I was eating pretty good but found out through the pantry purge and restock I was off. Â The nutrition plan was a bit shocking at first but I have come to appreciate the foods I eat much more than my old method of eating whatever I could. Â The snack plan has also helped me limit and manage going back to my old ways.
