Meet Joanna: Joanna is a wifey, a momma, and a lover of all things delicious and nutritious. When Joanna was younger, she was diagnosed with multiple food allergies and intolerances. This prompted switching her major from photojournalism to nutrition, and she hasn't looked back. As a former Division 1 student-athlete, she knows first-hand how challenging balancing eating healthfully, fueling your sport, and food allergies can be. As a busy mom of two, she gets how life can simply get in the way of taking care of yourself. If you are wondering if this is the right fit for you, we are happy to talk. You don't have to do this life alone. We are here to help.

Best Fit Clients: General Nutrition, Post Bariatric Care, Body Image, Medical Nutrition Therapy, GI Nutrition, Type 2 DM, Women's Health

Meet Andrea: Andrea is a passionate dietitian whose love for nutrition just clicked one day. At that moment she realized the constant underlying role nutrition had played in her life thus far, from her own personal GI struggles to her family members' experiences with diabetes and weight challenges. She is intrigued by the fact that food - a seemingly simple necessity for life - can also be so complex when considering each individual's unique relationship with food and eating. 

Andrea takes a gentle approach to behavior change, and it is her ability to work alongside you as a partner that drives her loyal client base. She strives for food to be fun and enjoyable and is committed to helping you find upgrades to your favorites.

When she’s not working, Andrea can be found traveling, baking focaccia (and other delicious treats), trying new restaurants, and documenting said activities with her self-taught photography skills. She currently lives in Philly with her fiancé and golden retriever puppy, Graham. She can’t wait to get to know you a bit better and support you along your journey!
