What I’m most excited to bring to Parsley Health members
I love using Parsley Health’s whole-person approach to meet the unique needs and health goals of the members I work with. I believe that there is always a solution to every symptom, and that when you are able to find the root cause (or root causes!) and work upstream, you can make a huge impact by creating positive feedback loops. I work to integrate contemporary science while acknowledging the connection between body systems. I put myself in the members' shoes to better understand their lifestyle to best support them. I believe when you make an impact in someone’s life you create ripples, influencing others around them, and soon you are creating waves.
