A registered dietitian for Laguna Niguel — virtually.

Laguna Niguel is one of the greenest cities in Orange County — more than a third of it is protected open space, with 80-plus miles of trails, Laguna Niguel Regional Park and its lake, and the San Joaquin Hills rolling down toward the coast.

It's a wellness-minded community. There's a popular Sunday farmers market for fresh local produce, a well-used YMCA, and a strong culture of hiking, biking and being outdoors — residents here already care about how they eat and move.

That's exactly the kind of foundation I build on. My approach is sustainable and root-cause — working with real, whole foods like what's at the farmers market — and virtual delivery means expert care fits your week without a drive.

Laguna Niguel is wellness-minded but busy — most residents commute out of the city for work, and weekends fill with trails and family. Telehealth meets that reality: expert care from home, no drive across South County.

Each session is a video visit with a personalized plan and written resources sent after. We can review labs, fold in CGM data and iterate over follow-ups.

I'm based in Orange County and virtual-first. Select in-person sessions in OC are available by request, but the practice is built around telehealth so care stays consistent.

A lot of Laguna Niguel clients come in for PCOS, hormone work and insulin resistance, and — given the city's established population — perimenopause and midlife hormone changes are a major focus. The work is root-cause: labs, cycles, sleep and stress, not just food.

Gut health and IBS round out what most people reach me for. All of it is weight-inclusive and whole-foods-first — progress is measured in labs, energy, cycles and symptoms, never the scale.
