About Jessica

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Dietetics from Olivet Nazarene University and completed over 1,200 hours of hands-on training through a dietetic internship with OSF St. Francis Medical Center. I’ve worked as a practicing dietitian for 3.5 years, gaining valuable experience in a variety of settings.

For one year, I specialized in medical and surgical weight loss counseling at a bariatric clinic, helping patients navigate their weight loss journeys with compassion and expertise. I also spent two years in a retail setting, where I provided diverse nutrition counseling services to meet a wide range of client needs.

These experiences have shaped my flexible, client-centered approach. Whether you’re seeking support with health improvement, weight loss, or simply building a better relationship with food, I bring a wealth of knowledge and real-world experience to the table.

Let’s work together to redefine what healthy looks like for you.
