Hi! Welcome to my lil’ corner of the internet.
After 11+ years as a dietitian, I’m combining my passion for nutrition with a love for design. I create clean, engaging websites with a touch of fun for fellow dietitians and small businesses. Despite no formal training in design – I know what works and how to bring it to life online!
How I got here
Over 20 years ago, armed with a library book called “HTML for Dummies”, I built my very first webpage and dreamed of one day working as a web designer. As fate would have it, I instead found myself on the path to obtain my Registered Dietitian (RD) credential. But I never forgot about my interest in design.
My career as a dietitian has led me all over the map within the nutrition space. Over my 11 years as an RD, you could have found me…

Or perhaps you might have found me…
Although my dietetic career has been wide-ranging, a constant thread has been using design to effectively educate and communicate.
In 2023, I decided to delve into web design & development for fellow RDs and small business owners – a longtime passion finally fully realized. And here we are!
A couple more things…
I’m not JUST a dietitian and web designer! I also enjoy:

Fostering rescue cats
We have two adorable cats at home, Clarence and Mia, and we usually have 2-3 foster kitties around as well! We foster for a wonderful group called Forever Fortunate Felines.

Running Around Chicago
As a kid I hated running, but somehow I’ve become that person who runs marathons (and half marathons, 10Ks, 5Ks, etc). My fav place to run is the Chicago lakefront.

Traveling in the States & abroad
I’ve loved visiting cities like Barcelona, Paris, Gotenburg, San Francisco, and Montreal. A trip with city sights and scenic views is where it’s at for me! My dream trip? Japan 🇯🇵
But Enough About me.
Now let’s talk about YOU.
Here’s the deal. As a fellow small business owner, I can tell you with confidence:
The way you portray yourself online matters.
A professional website is an opportunity to visually represent yourself, your values, and the overall vibe and experience a client can expect when working with you. And in today’s online world, your website may be your clientele’s first impression of you.
So let’s make it a good one, shall we?
