Hi! I'm Kelly
Registered Dietitian & Human Design Coach
#1: I use a Functional Nutrition approach, which aims to find the root cause of issues, uses food as natural medicine, and involves balancing core areas of health (ie: stress, sleep, activity, emotional well-being, spirit, etc.).
#2: I have been an RD for 23 years, and have ten years of experience working with supplements, tinctures, superfoods, and herbs. If needed, I will help you navigate the often confusing supplement industry to ensure your body receives the nutrients it needs.
​
#3: I have a Bachelor's Degree in Nutrition from University of Idaho and a Masters degree in Human Nutrition from Washington State University.
​
#4: I have spent thousands of hours counseling people, and use motivational interviewing with emotion-based therapy as a foundation. I also enjoy doing trainings and have given many presentations throughout my career.
#5: I use Human Design as a tool to transform client's health and well-being. Learn more about human design here.
​
#6: Sports nutrition is a niche of mine, and was the reason I became a dietitian. I am an athlete myself, so I understand how nutrition impacts exercise performance. I started running competitively at age 9, I was a three-sport athlete in high school, and I attended the University of Idaho on a track & field scholarship. I was the Sports Dietitian at a PAC-12 University where I helped teams and individual athletes with nutrition for their sport performance.
​
After college, I loved running half marathons, and I ran the NYC marathon (a bucket list item!). Now I enjoy easy runs with girlfriends, yoga, and hiking in the Central Oregon mountains.
