A Passion for Performance:

My journey into the world of sports nutrition began with a deep passion for health, wellness, and athletics. As a former collegiate softball player, I experienced firsthand the transformative power of proper nutrition on athletic performance and overall well-being. However, my relationship with food hasn't always been easy. From struggles with picky eating and disordered eating patterns to challenges with body image, I've navigated my own journey to understanding the true essence of nutrition as fuel for both body and mind.

From Athlete to Advocate:

This journey inspired me to pursue a career in dietetics, earning my BS in Dietetics from Ball State University and later completing my Master of Science degree and Dietetic Internship from Illinois State University. I recognized my passion for helping athletes learn how to properly fuel their mind and body for success, leading me to accept a position as the first full-time dietitian for the Indianapolis Colts. Here I worked closely with elite athletes to optimize their performance through personalized nutrition strategies. This invaluable experience gave me firsthand insight into the unique nutritional demands of NFL athletes and provided the foundation for what would become KG Performance Nutrition.

Family and Fulfillment:

In December of 2022, I welcomed a new chapter in my life as a mother. Faced with the demands of balancing my career with the joys of motherhood, I made the conscious decision to prioritize my family while continuing to support elite athletes and individuals seeking to transform their health and wellness through KG Nutrition. This journey has reinforced my belief in the importance of holistic wellness – nurturing not only physical performance but also mental and emotional resilience.
