She is skilled at helping people improve their health and lifestyle through proper food and nutrition. She received her degree in Nutritional Science with a minor in Psychology from Penn State University in State College, Pennsylvania. Jennifer’s approach to patient care is focusing on the belief that food is our medicine and that a healthy meal plan, exercise, and adequate sleep should be the first line of defense for disease prevention and management. Jennifer strives to help people see that they can still enjoy food, while also nourishing their body. She sees patients of all ages 5 and up. Jennifer only takes patients from her individual offices that she serves. Patients can make an appointment by first getting a referral from their PCP.
