About Us

Michelle is a Registered Dietitian. She completed her Bachelor’s degree at Indiana University and her Dietetic Internship at Oklahoma State University. She has over 10 years of experience working with a wide range of patients. Those with Type 2 Diabetes, Obesity, PCOS, history of bariatric surgery, as well as many GI disorders such as IBS, gastroparesis, food allergies/sensitivities, and Celiac can rest assured they are in good hands. Her interest in GI came to be while figuring out her own GI challenges. Michelle found out she has multiple sensitivities and lives a gluten-free lifestyle. This has propelled her to find out new and delicious ways to eat, while also feeling her best.

Michelle understands making changes can be challenging. She is there to support you in a way that makes sense for you. She believes in making individual and personal plans that are realistic and achievable. Whether it’s creating lower carbohydrate meals to achieve better glycemic control or working through the low FODMAP diet, Michelle is committed to helping you reach your goals while still enjoying your life. Life is all about balance and Michelle works hard to help you create lifestyle habits that make you feel good.

In her personal time, Michelle enjoys barre workouts, running, and yoga. She loves setting an example to stay active for her 2 young kids. She also loves to cook with her husband and try out new restaurants in the OKC area. Food is a passion for Michelle, both professionally and personally. Beyond Michelle’s interest in all things food lives a deep passion for formula one racing. You can find Michelle supporting Red Bull Racing or Scuderia Ferrarri on most weekends.
