About Me

Hi! I’m Patty, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (NDTR) with over 14 years of experience across clinical hospital settings, patient education, and private practice. I’m passionate about helping individuals improve their health, feel confident in their bodies, and become the best version of themselves.

Based on Long Island, New York, I offer virtual nutrition coaching only, allowing me to work with clients locally and with individuals anywhere in the country through personalized online appointments.

With rising rates of obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, I believe proper nutrition plays a powerful role in both prevention and healing. My philosophy is simple: food is our medicine. Through clean, intentional eating and individualized nutrition guidance, sustainable and lasting health is possible.

Whether you’re looking to improve blood sugar, manage cholesterol, support weight loss, or build healthier habits that fit your lifestyle, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. I look forward to partnering with you on your wellness journey.
