I'm a mom, pediatric speech-language pathologist, and holistic feeding specialist.

For over a decade, I’ve helped families move from stressful mealtimes and picky eating battles to calmer, more connected tables. But the truth is, my biggest teacher hasn’t been my clinical training or professional experience.

It’s been my son.

When he was born, I thought my expertise would give me all the answers. Instead, he taught me something no textbook could: that feeding challenges are never just about food. They’re about the whole child, their biology, their development, their environment, and their sense of safety at the table.

That realization reshaped everything. I stopped focusing on quick fixes and started building an approach that looks deeper at gut health, oral motor skills, sensory sensitivities, nervous system regulation, and family connection.

This became the foundation of my BLOOM™ Framework, which I now use to guide families like yours.

Today, I help parents of picky eaters understand why their child struggles with food and what to do about it, without pressure, shame, or mealtime battles. Because when we look deeper, children not only learn to eat, they thrive.
