Practical Type 1 Diabetes Coaching From Someone Who Actually Lives It
Real-World Support for the Parts of Diabetes Nobody Teaches You
Living with diabetes is about much more than insulin, medications, and blood sugar numbers.
Whether you're newly diagnosed, feeling overwhelmed by technology, struggling with exercise, or simply tired of trying to figure everything out alone, I'm here to help. I specialize in helping active adults with diabetes navigate exercise, technology, nutrition, and the daily challenges that don't fit into a 15-minute doctor's appointment.
Together we can work through:
Improving time in range and A1C
Understanding CGMs and insulin pumps
Managing exercise and blood sugar
Preventing diabetes burnout
Preparing for doctor appointments
Navigating insurance and technology decisions
Building confidence and independence
I won't replace your medical team. I'll help you get more out of it.
Why Work With Me?
There is no shortage of diabetes information online. What many people need is someone who understands the day-to-day reality of living with diabetes and can help them apply that information to their own life.
I work best with:
Newly diagnosed adults
Adults struggling with diabetes technology
People looking to improve time in range
Active adults who exercise regularly
People experiencing diabetes burnout
Family members trying to better support a loved one with diabetes
I've Been Where You Are
In 2018 I landed in the emergency room with a blood sugar over 1000.
I was initially diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, only to discover years later that I actually had Type 1 diabetes.
Since then I've spent thousands of hours learning about diabetes through personal experience, healthcare practice, clinical research, technology, and the diabetes community.
Today I combine my experience as:
A person living with Type 1 diabetes
An Occupational Therapist
A fitness coach
A health technology professional
Affordable, Personalized Support
Living with diabetes is challenging enough without worrying about the cost of getting help. My goal is to provide practical, real-world guidance at a price that is accessible to as many people as possible. Whether you're newly diagnosed, exploring diabetes technology, struggling with exercise and blood sugar management, or simply looking for someone who understands what you're going through, I'm here to help.
