I am a Registered Dietitian & Certified Health Nut. I love everything and anything about nutrition, health and wellness.

Here’s a glimpse to give you a little insight into the person, woman & wife behind Simple Swaps… (for information on my areas of expertise & credentials, please click here).

1) I’m Italian & love carbs… any form, all the time. #ilovecarbs

2) Ever since I was 12, I knew I wanted to be an RD. I was able to finish my undergrad, masters and dietetic internship all before I turned 23! #realtalk #nerd #determined

3) I moved to Illinois after college without knowing a soul… and met my husband that first weekend!

4) Wayne, the hubby, is the certified taste tester & self-proclaimed CEO of Simple Swaps!

5) We live in San Diego & spend most of our down time outdoors, hiking, exploring and beachin’ it on the shores of the Pacific!

6) I recently took the dive to go full time in my consulting business. I’m very excited but nervous at the same time!

7) My favorite color is coral, but I usually wear black or white :).

8) I love dessert, specifically frozen yogurt, but anything chocolate will do!

9) I’m slightly obsessed with powdered peanut butter. It is my all time favorite food. I eat it breakfast, lunch, & dinner… #getinmybelly!

10) I am in bed by 9pm on a late night, so you’ll find me at Happy Hour with a SkinnyRita in hand as my drink of choice!

What’s your favorite food? Your guilty indulgence? I want to get to know you better! Less
