Hi! I’m Megan!

  • Is your family’s relationship with food complicated?

  • Are your meals no longer joyful?

  • Are your kids rejecting your healthy meal choices and demanding unhealthy options?

  • Is your child so picky that you’ve given up the battle and find yourself making different meals for everyone?

  • Despite your best efforts, are you struggling with not only your sanity but your family’s allergies and weight concerns?

 

I’ve been in your shoes, and I still am!

Whether you’re a new mom trying to manage breastfeeding or the parent of a teenager struggling with suboptimal eating habits, I can help.

As a busy mom, I understand the ordinary and extraordinary struggles families have with nutrition. My family-friendly strategies are rooted in science, but crafted with common sense.

If you are managing a complex medical condition, allergies or just want to be sure you are providing optimal nutrition for your child, you need a specialist in pediatric nutrition.

I’m passionate about working with families as a Registered Dietitian. My extensive experience with children and adults includes diverse settings and multiple health concerns.

Working together, I will help you navigate challenges and feed your family with confidence and joy!

The Clinical Expertise Your Family Needs

Prior to relocating from San Diego to Newton, I worked as a clinical dietitian and manager at Scripps Hospital in California. I served individual patients, gave specialty workshops, and was actively sought out as a speaker. In this role, I led the charge to implement evidence-based practice and new programs and services. My work was published in several journals.

My formal education includes a M.S. in clinical nutrition from the Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science and a B.S. in food science and human nutrition from Washington State University, where I graduated summa cum laude.
