Hey there, I’m Karleigh! Most days you can find me in workout clothes while reheating my coffee for the 3rd time and chasing my two rambunctious boys around. I am mostly known for my love of nutrition and good food, my obsession with dogs, and my addiction to baking.
The things I am most passionate about in life are feeding my family delicious, nutritious foods and debunking diet-culture propaganda with simple, evidence-based recommendations. I work with moms who are struggling with distinguishing a fad diet versus sound nutrition for their families. I work with moms to generate a tailored approach to feeding their specific families that minimizes stress and is appropriate for their schedule. Have a picky eater? What about food allergies? These are just a few things that I help clients with that, if not managed carefully in young children, can manifest into less healthy relationships with food.
I received my Bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M University, completing my dietetic internship in Houston, TX, and my Master’s Degree in Nutrition from Texas Woman’s University. As a Registered Dietitian, I have over 5 years of experience working in nutrition communication and corporate wellness. Through my work at a major grocery retail chain, I learned valuable tips and tricks to help people navigate the grocery store easily, helping them to make better food choices. I next worked in corporate wellness for a major oil and gas company and helped create a culture of wellness for employees through hosting educational nutrition talks, interactive cooking classes, and more.
“I’m enjoying the 1-1 learning and partnership as I walk through feeding my child in the early years of life.”
“I really enjoy the hour long sessions you do with your clients! It’s a great time to be reminded of goals and talk through how to meet them. You have such helpful tips!”
“One thing that I really appreciated was the research behind each topic we talked about. Karleigh did an awesome job at preparing for our sessions and I always left learning so much!”
“Every step of the way I felt my own confidence in feeding my child and wider family grow as I put concepts into practice and saw results.”
