I've worked in health, wellness and athletic performance for a long time. I ran my own sports massage practice for 20 years, helping clients heal from injuries, get out of chronic pain, and establish good self-care habits. I have been a distance running coach since 2015, working with individual clients and coaching women's running groups. I gained my health coaching certification from the highly respected Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, and became board-certified in 2025. 

 

My varied experience in wellness has given me a deep appreciation for the connections within the human body and mind, and I have always been interested in the many facets of health. I'm a big believer in helping my clients discover the tools and skills they need to take control of their own well-being. I put my clients' wishes and goals at the heart of the relationship and work with you — gently guiding, rather than handing out cookie-cutter plans.  

 

I’m a lifelong athlete — former basketball player, now a distance runner — as well as a parent and business owner. I’ve navigated IBS, SIBO, stress and burnout, and eating for sports performance and for gut health.  As a woman in my mid 40s, the way our bodies continue to surprise us is a part of my everyday experience. The functional medicine approach has been a game changer in taking care of my own health, and I'm passionate about sharing it with my clients. I'm particularly interested in how a driven “athlete mindset” affects your overall well-being.

 

I especially love working with:

 

• Active women in midlife

• Recreational and competitive athletes

• Gut health, particularly IBS and SIBO

• Stress management and mindset

• Women's health and hormones

My services include: Monthly run coaching — Seasonal small group running programs — Health coaching for runners, gut health and midlife wellness
