NAKITA DAVIS, NDT

"I have an Associate Degree of Applied Science in Nutrition and Dietetics. In the past, I was overweight and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I knew that I had to change my poor eating habits to regain a healthier lifestyle. I decided to go to school for nutrition because I wanted to learn how food affects the body. I aim to encourage, motivate, and teach individuals about making healthier food choices and inspiring a healthier lifestyle. I enjoy cooking and talking about the nutritional content of food. I want people to know that they can consume nutritious foods to help prevent chronic diseases and obesity."

CLANCY GEISLER, RN, INHC

"I am a registered nurse and certified integrative nutrition health coach. I graduated from nursing school in 2008 and spent 14 years as a medical oncology nurse. After having my third daughter, I went on my own personal health journey. I enrolled in a health coaching program where I learned a holistic approach to health and wellness. I learned that food is information for our bodies and that not all calories are created equal. The foods we eat can promote wellness and prevent disease. I want to help guide you to discover the foods that will nourish your body and help you feel your best!"

As a Registered Dietitian who loves running, triathlons, weight lifting, and social gatherings, it's so important to find that balance in health. My goal is to help anyone I can find the healthiest version of themselves through progress, not perfection."
