I started AP Nutrition & Performance with the goal of providing unparalleled, customized nutrition advice and track & field training, my two areas of expertise and passion, in the Triangle area of North Carolina and beyond. I have a broad range of nutrition experience in both healthcare and university settings, and I have coached athletes to dozens of medals at the national level. To me, nothing is more rewarding than helping others to reach the goals most meaningful to them.

What clients are saying…

“I put off talking to a nutritionist for a long time as a professional athlete because I thought I could figure out most of it myself. WOW was I wrong for waiting!!! The detail and precision of my plan, personally adjusted day by day based on my workouts is beyond impressive. Not only do I have the energy to run and lift better, but changes in my macros and meal timing has helped with my sleep and brain fog as well. I had no idea how much I was just winging it until I saw what professional help looked like. Having a great experience, thank you!!”
