Nutrition in harmony—evidence-based nutrition care that integrates health, culture, and complex medical expertise to help you build confidence, wellness, and peace with food.
Nutrition is part of your healthcare.
Nutrition is part of your healthcare.
You don't need a diagnosis to want this figured out - you just need to eat, every day, for the rest of your life.

Whether you were referred by your medical team, or you're simply the kind of person who takes their health seriously and wants an expert in your corner, this is a good place to start.
I can help you understand how food connects to your health, make sense of medical recommendations, and turn them into practical choices that fit your everyday life.

Personalized Nutrition Care for Diabetes, Optimal Nutrition, and Chronic Health Conditions
I'm Katherine! I'm a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. I help you nutritionally manage conditions that don't forgive guesswork: diabetes, malnutrition, disordered eating, optimal growth, etc.
That training comes from City of Hope, Kaiser Permanente, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Keck Medicine of USC, and LA General Medical Center.
Combined with my multicultural upbringing, these experiences have shaped my belief that there is rarely a single "right" way to eat. The best nutrition care respects your health, your culture, your values, and your everyday life while helping you move toward your goals.
I'm fluent in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Spanish -- not just conversational, but fluent enough to talk about food the way it's actually lived: family recipes, cultural context, the words that don't translate cleanly. That matters more in nutrition than almost anywhere else.
More isn't always better.
Evidence-based nutrition care doesn't mean more tests, more supplements, or more rules.
There's a lot of pressure in nutrition to constantly test, optimize, restrict, and add more. I take a different approach: I use the best available evidence, clinical expertise, and your individual circumstances to focus on what is actually useful for you.
Sometimes that means a supplement or additional testing. Sometimes it means recognizing that you don't need either.
Good nutrition care isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters.

Nutrition, Ahead of Time
Think of it like working with a trainer -- but for how you eat.
Medication can lower a blood sugar number. It can't teach your body what to do with the next meal.
Most people are handed a diagnosis and a prescription, then left to figure out the food part alone. That's the gap this practice exists to close.
What that looks like in practice
Stopped guessing what his CGM numbers meant and stopped fearing food because of them.
Went from "the doctor said watch your sodium" to an actual weekly meal rhythm that works with her family's cooking.
Regained strength and muscle after frailty from liver disease.
HOW WE'LL WORK TOGETHER
Nutrition care, with you at the center.
I believe nutrition care is a partnership. I'll walk alongside you through the challenges you're facing, help you understand the "why" behind your health, and support you for as long as you need.
My goal isn't to keep you dependent on nutrition counseling. It's to help you build the knowledge and confidence to eventually feel ready to take it from here.
