Hi, I’m Lisa. I’m a New York City based Health Coach with a mission to help my clients become the best version of themselves.

Born and raised in New York City, I always pictured myself taking over the business world one day. Upon graduating from Lehigh University, I worked at Freddie Mac, LivingSocial, and Deloitte Consulting (check out my linkedin for more details). Working in the health and wellness industry is the last place I ever expected to find myself…

With no desire to lead a healthy lifestyle, and lack of knowledge of how to do so for that matter, my poor diet and exercise habits began when I left home and became exponentially worse as my career progressed. I worked extraordinarily long hours and regularly travelled, which led me to turn to fast food for meals and snack on bags of chips and cookies to get me through the day. It wasn’t until an upcoming milestone birthday that I decided to change my ways – if I was going to be 30 and single, I was going to look damn good!

I cut out (obvious) processed foods, decreased carbs, increased my vegetable intake and committed to a working out at least 3 days a week for 30 minutes. Within just a couple of months I was shocked about how much better I felt! Losing weight was just a side benefit to how my new healthy habits made me feel; all of the sudden I was sleeping better, had more energy, and saw a drastic difference in my skin, hair and nails, it was crazy! I simply became hooked!

Whenever I had the time, I researched healthy habits. I was stunned about the many new things I was learning – why didn’t anyone tell me this stuff before?

As much as I loved learning about the health and wellness world, I was shocked and frustrated as to how hard it was to get down to the actual truth – so much of what is published is confusing and contradicting. This is what led me to enroll in the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and turn my newfound passion into a career.

I continued to change my lifestyle, incorporating everything I learned from school, until I found the magic recipe that worked for me. Just a year from starting my journey I lost 17lbs, a weight I never dreamed of being, and gained enough self-confidence to power the city of New York. The most important thing I learned is that health and wellness needs vary person to person, which is why I’m committed to finding that magic recipe for you! All I want to do is help you achieve the same happiness I have found!
