Research Microbiologist & Co-Founder, Microbiome Labs
I’m a board-certified functional health coach, health-based chef, and passionate advocate for the power of the gut microbiome. For over a decade, I’ve helped busy women lose stubborn weight, lower inflammation, and step off medications—not through restriction, but by healing their gut from the inside out.
I created the 9 Arms of Wellness as a science-backed, lifestyle-first framework that helps women build sustainable habits and enjoy real food—without guilt or fear. It’s not about chasing a number on the scale; it’s about restoring balance, energy, and confidence.
If you’ve been told your symptoms are “normal,” or you’ve tried every diet and still feel stuck, know this:
You’re not the problem. Your microbes just need the right support.
That’s why I wrote Flourish from Within—to give you a practical, joyful path to lifelong wellness.
You were made to flourish. Let’s begin.
