welcome, I’M JEN

I’m a functional nutritionist with a deep focus on chronic skin conditions and the gut-skin connection. I help individuals who’ve tried everything finally get to the root of their symptoms so they can heal from the inside out and reclaim their confidence.

With over 25 years of experience in nutrition and advanced training in Root Cause Dermatology, my work blends science, nature, and intuition. I take a highly personalized approach, integrating therapeutic nutrition, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle strategies to support deep, lasting transformation.

Whether you're struggling with acne, eczema, rosacea, or skin inflammation that just won’t go away, you're in the right place. I’m here to guide you through a healing journey that honors your unique body, your story, and your vision of vibrant, radiant health.

This isn’t just about clear skin.
It’s about feeling whole, empowered, and at home in your body again.

I’m so grateful you’re here!

I’m here to help you return to vitality and feel great in your skin again!

I love teaching individuals who desire to thrive in life to heal their bodies with a whole-life approach. I understand that everyone is unique and deserves unique care.  By discovering and addressing the root cause of your specific symptoms, whether its fatigue, brain fog, skin rashes, unexplained weight gain to name a few, I will usher you powerfully (yet, gently) on your healing journey and show you how to:   

• Increase your vitality through nutrition, movement, mindfulness, and supportive lifestyle upgrades.

• Listen to your body’s cues.

• Change your lifestyle to fit your physical, mental, and emotional needs.

• Move through transitional life experiences with confidence.

• Create vitality for you and your family.

MY journey

It has not been a linear path to get to this point! While I’ve been a Registered Dietitian for as long as I’ve had a career (25+ years), I haven’t always walked the talk! Sure, I had a fairly healthy diet and exercised regularly, but it wasn’t until experiencing physical (and mental) changes that appeared virtually out of nowhere, leaving me exhausted, irritable, overweight and not feeling myself that I was compelled to tune into what I needed to heal my body.

Fast forward into perimenopause and learning I have an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto’s, I was quickly motivated to dive into this fascinating space of Functional Medicine. I researched every possible, natural way to help my body heal by treating the causes of my dis-ease rather than just the symptoms.

I had hope, and feeling less than was not my destiny! Even small changes made a big impact. My diet is now based on whole, nutrient dense foods. I supplement when needed. I lift more weights. I use more natural products on my body and in our home, and I really focus on resting when necessary. Not only have I changed my physiology, but I have more energy and feel much more engaged in life! These beneficial lifestyle upgrades have also been a big win for my family.
