I am a registered Dietitian & Nutritionist who specialises in plant-based nutrition and vegan lifestyles. My journey into plant-based nutrition began shortly after having my first child. I now have three healthy plant-based children and my passion is helping you to succeed on your own journey towards a plant-based diet. After my five years of study at university, I was confused about some of the foods I was recommending to my patients so I begain researching about animal products. I was stunned by what I found. After years of furthering education in the field of plant-based nutrition, I am 100% confident that whole foods plant-based eating is the optinal way to eat for disease prevention, treatment and for general health and well-being. I look forward to helping you on your journey towards a healthier future.

I have always been vegetarian but for the past 7 years, I have gone completely plant-based after understanding its health benefits.   I strive to bring this knowledge to my patients, friends, and family every day in order for them to know that food really is medicine and that many of our chronic diseases can be controlled and even reversed with the right nutrition.   I have been in practice for 12 years and previously working in a hospital, I have seen how diseases can progress and reduce the quality of life.  Through ARGOW Health I hope to bring the information I have learned through my 7-year journey to all my patients and so that they can live happy healthy lives free of diseases.

I love helping people transition to a plant-based lifestyle.  I have learned first hand it is the power of plants to heal our gut, reverse disease, boost our immune system, and prevent chronic disease.  The best part is that plants taste so good, look so beautiful, and are simple to prepare.  I created a cookbook as part of my online course, Plant U.  My clients lose weight, lower their blood pressure, heal their gut, lower their blood sugars, and lower their cholesterol all while enjoying delicious foods and not feeling deprived. My goal is to bring joy back to their kitchens.  I help people with an online course or phone consultations.  I also have FB groups for extra support and LIVE group coaching. Call me to schedule a complimentary conversation for next steps.

As a non-invasive cardiologist practicing at large academic centers for the past 11 years I have watched my patients progressively suffer with recurrent myocardial infarctions, strokes, atrial fibrillation, and more frequent hospitalizations for heart failure despite my attempts at optimizing goal directed medical therapy and referrals for repeat invasive procedures and surgeries.  Since I have incorporated lifestyle medicine and plant-based nutrition counseling into my practice over the past 2 years I have seen dramatic improvements in my patients health and well being while decreasing the amount of pharmaceuticals they take.  As I enter the middle part of my career I have a new passion to cure and heal my patients with a combination of lifestyle intervention and traditional medicinal and procedural approaches when necessary. I look forward to sharing the wisdom I have gained not only with my patients, but with colleagues, friends and family, through my own personal journey towards plant based eating and the formal knowledge I have gained through formal plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine training. 

I am a board certified physician right outside of Atlanta in Sandy Springs, GA. I am board certified in Pediatrics, Pediatric Emergency Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine.
