About The Black Belt Dietitian

  

About

I'm a Licensed Registered Dietitian and Louisiana native with over 10 years of experience in combat sports. I hold a Bachelor of Science in both Health Education and Promotion and Dietetics, a Master’s in Nutritional Science, and I am a Certified Health Education Specialist. My journey has included a rigorous internship at the UFC Performance Institute, where I worked with elite MMA athletes and gained firsthand insight into high-level sports nutrition.

My passion for combat sports began in 2009 at Clementi’s Gladiator Academy. While training and competing in MMA and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I balanced full-time work, family life, and my pursuit to become a dietitian. Today, I remain active as a BJJ practitioner, instructor, and competitor.


Why Work with Me?   

My background combines academic expertise with real fight experience. I understand the physical and mental demands of combat sports and offer personalized nutrition strategies to help make weight safely, fuel performance, and recover effectively. If you're serious about your training, I'm someone who speaks your language—on the mat and at the table.
