Before I was an anti-diet dietitian, I was a recipe developer and food journalist. (And before that, I went to culinary school and worked as a line cook in New York City.) Now, I split my time between media work and my eating disorder private practice. I’m not interested in promoting dieting or weight loss, but I’m passionate about being a part of the larger conversation on food, health, and inclusivity. Ultimately, my goal is to show people that food can (and should!) be joyful and stress-free, and that all bodies are good bodies.

I contribute to dozens of national outlets, including SELF, HuffPost, EatingWell, The Kitchn, and Food Network. I write a regular column about non-diet nutrition for Outside, and I develop recipes for brands like Kroger and Good Neighbor Pharmacy.

I’ve been a guest on local and national TV shows, including Good Morning America, Meredith, and NY1. In the segments, I talk about things like cooking Thanksgiving dinner in a bucket (go ahead, ask me about it), hosting New Year’s for Under $75, and finding the best lobster roll in New York City — not your average dietitian reel, but I stand by it all!
