Natalie was born and raised in the Chicago area but has lived in Wisconsin, Georgia, and Florida before ultimately finding her way back to the windy city. She received her first degree from University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in communication science and disorders and spent the early days of her career working in special education. As a former gymnast, Natalie always had a passion for food, nutrition, and its effect on athletic performance. She became a personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine and went on to receive her second degree in nutrition and dietetics from Dominican University in Chicago.

Natalie is deeply committed to understanding each client’s unique and individual needs, steering away from a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition therapy. She firmly believes in the importance of balance and is dedicated to assisting clients in embracing intuitive eating, breaking free from the rollercoaster of diet culture and trends. Natalie’s ultimate goal is to support every client in achieving overall wellness and feeling their best.

When not working, you can find her in a group fitness class, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen (one of her life goals is to write a cookbook!). She loves summer and will spend her time paddleboarding or taking a walk by the lake.
