MY PREMISE
Complex challenges rarely belong to one discipline.
Health and behavior are shaped by the interaction of people, culture, environments, communication, technology, organizations, and systems.
My consulting begins by understanding the challenge, context, evidence, people, and systems involved, then bringing together relevant perspectives from nutrition, psychology, behavioral science, public health, technology, and systems thinking. The goal is not simply to provide recommendations, but to develop solutions that are evidence-informed, contextually relevant, practical, and sustainable.
I help individuals, professionals, & organizations address complex health & behavior challenges by connecting evidence with practical action.
Drawing on 25+ years of experience across nutrition, psychology, behavioral science, public health, humanitarian, clinical, & development settings, I bring an interdisciplinary and culturally responsive perspective to each engagement.
