Natalie is a Registered Dietitian through the Commission on Dietetic Registration for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics​. Her interest in health and nutrition began when she was working as a research biochemist in San Francisco and she noticed that most of the diet and lifestyle programs being promoted on social media and TV were not based on sound science. She decided to make it her mission to use her knowledge and experience in the research field to help people rise above the swamp of misinformation to cultivate a lifestyle that is health-promoting and sustainable. It is her goal to provide people with knowledge and the tools to make eating healthfully become second nature rather than chore that needs to be accomplished. 

In addition to nerding out on nutrition research, Natalie likes to spend her free time painting, gardening, rock climbing, and sewing.
