My Story

I have been in the health care field for over 30 years. While much of it has been in the hospital setting, I  began to branch out and understand  about the basics of what makes us healthy. Our environment, what is in the food we eat, sleep, stress, and our genetic mapping that predisposes us to certain illnesses are just a few. Through my own personal healthcare journey, I realized treatments were aimed at symptoms rather than the cause and if our symptoms fell outside the box of modern traditional medicine, they often were not treated at all. This was frustrating.  Although my career path in nursing didn't focus on women's health or functional medicine from the start, I grew to recognize there was a need to think outside the box and found myself passionate about making a difference in this realm of care. I embarked on a journey in navigating women's health challenges and seeking alternative medical approaches to make women feel better. My early experiences sparked my passion for learning more about the missing pieces to treating people with similar conditions that I experienced and a deeper exploration of health solutions. Embracing functional medicine has undoubtedly changed my perspective. I feel I follow traditional solutions with a functional medicine flare. Through research and treatments of my own conditions with various providers, I've gained valuable insights, especially in bioidentical hormone replacement therapies, metabolic health, insulin resistance, and autoimmune disorders. I have learned  how exercise, over all wellness, and what we eat serve as key components to our health. Now, not only is women's health important to me but men's health also. We all can feel better, and  really live while we are alive  Over 20 years ago,  I met Tony DeCesare and became a part of the Metabolix family  which  helped me physically to improve myself through understanding the metabolic side of exercise, diet, and true grit to overcome any obstacle.  Sometimes it's really just about the willingness  to find those missing pieces that complete the quest for the best "us" we can be.
