Trusted by high-achieving professionals—functional, lab-led coaching that turns data into clear next steps.
If you are a high-achieving professional and career-focused adult, you may be used to pushing through. You keep showing up, handling work, family, deadlines, and responsibilities. But lately, your body may be sending signals you cannot ignore anymore.
You can have results that look “fine” and still feel tired, foggy, bloated, inflamed, or stuck. Symptoms are signals. They deserve context, not dismissal.
More effort is not always the answer. Sometimes the next step is understanding what your body is trying to tell you now.
When you are building a career, leading a team, growing a business, caring for family, and trying to keep your body together, generic advice is not enough. You need someone who can help you slow down, look at the right clues, and turn confusing symptoms and data into a practical path forward.
That is the value I bring. After 25+ years in corporate finance, I understand the pressure of long days, deadlines, travel, stress, and the habit of putting your health last because everything else feels urgent.
Today, as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), Board Certified Functional Wellness Professional, personal trainer, speaker, and former corporate finance professional, I help high-achieving professionals connect the dots across symptoms, habits, labs, stress, digestion, blood sugar, recovery, movement, and real life.
As a functional health coach in Atlanta working virtually with busy professionals, my role is not to hand you another rigid plan. It is to help you understand what your body may be signaling, identify patterns, prioritize what matters, and implement realistic strategies you can actually follow.
Think of this as data-driven health coaching, health optimization coaching, and practical implementation support from an energy and performance coach who understands that your health has to work inside your real life, not inside a perfect schedule you do not have.
This is also health coaching for career-focused adults who want their body, brain, and habits to support their ambition instead of quietly draining it.
If you are like many of my clients, you are not dealing with one isolated issue. You are seeing patterns that keep stacking up.
What worked before may not work the same way today. Stress, sleep, digestion, blood sugar, hormones, recovery, and muscle mass can all change how your body responds.
These patterns are not character flaws. They are clues. The goal is to stop treating each symptom like a separate problem and start looking at how your body is responding as a system.

improve fat loss -> cravings -> digestion -> energy -> performance
This is health optimization coaching designed to help you know your body more, get clarity, and get unstuck. We investigate what is happening, integrate symptoms with data and lifestyle patterns, and implement strategies you can adjust as your body responds to improving fat loss, cravings, digestion, and energy.
You do not need another random plan, extreme diet, or supplement pile. You need to understand what matters most, what to prioritize, and what to adjust next.
Understand what may be driving your fatigue, cravings, stubborn weight, digestion issues, or poor recovery by reviewing symptoms, habits, history, lifestyle, and available data.
Connect the dots across energy, digestion, blood sugar, stress, sleep, recovery, labs, movement, and real life so your symptoms finally start to make sense.
Turn insight into realistic action with nutrition, movement, recovery, and lifestyle strategies you can follow, adjust, and sustain.
You do not have to figure it all out alone. The right process helps you stop chasing symptoms and start building a plan that fits your body, your goals, and your real life.
Maria will help you change your life! She helped me change mine and was an incredible motivator, listener, and coach. I discovered and reversed why I comforted myself with food and unhealthy behaviors. I lost 30 lbs and have kept it off with the new habits, but more important than the weight loss, I have gained an entirely new appreciation for myself and a confidence that has improved many aspects of my life.

At 55 y/o my joints were aching, my diet wasn’t working anymore. First, Maria taught me that weight loss is physical and mental. She pushed me to do things I’d have never done on my own. She saw potential in me and wanted me to see it too. I lost 28.4 lbs in her 90-day Blood Sugar Program. Maria also taught me to love myself more and put myself first. It’s not always easy, but I’ve realized that I’m worth it. She’s truly my life-saving coach.
Turn back the clock, reboot your health, and feel amazing from the inside out!
Get toxins out of the way so you can reignite your weight loss and feel happy in your own skin!
You don’t need another plan that ignores your real life. You need clarity, strategy, and support that helps you understand your body and take the next best step.
Work with an energy and performance coach who combines data-driven health coaching, functional lab-informed insight, and practical strategy to up level your day-to-day performance. Here’s how to begin:
We talk through your goals, symptoms, current habits, and what feels stuck.
We identify the best next step for your goals, whether that is coaching, bloodwork review, functional labs, CGM support, training, or another path.
If it is a fit, we build the right level of support around your body, your goals, and your real life.
Standard labs can be helpful, but they do not always explain why you feel off. Many high-achieving professionals are told everything looks normal while they still struggle with stubborn weight, cravings, poor sleep, low energy, brain fog, or digestion issues. If you are looking for health support when tests are normal, my work helps connect symptoms, lifestyle patterns, and lab data in plain English so you can identify smarter next steps.
Your body may need a different strategy than it did years ago. Stress, sleep, digestion, blood sugar, recovery, hormones, muscle mass, and life demands can all change how your body responds. More discipline is not always the answer. Better information and better course correction usually matter more.
My approach is coaching-led, data-informed, and built for busy professionals. We look at patterns across symptoms, habits, bloodwork, digestion, blood sugar, stress, recovery, and lifestyle instead of handing you another generic plan. When I use the phrase root-cause health coaching, I mean looking for patterns and possible contributors within a coaching scope, not diagnosing or treating disease.
Not always. Some clients begin with current bloodwork, health history, symptoms, habits, and lifestyle patterns. Functional lab testing may be helpful when we need deeper insight, but it is not the first step for everyone. The goal is to choose the right level of information for your situation, not overwhelm you with testing.
Yes, from a coaching and lifestyle support perspective. I do not prescribe or manage GLP-1 medications, but I can help you think through nutrition, digestion, strength training, muscle preservation, bloodwork patterns, and long-term habits that support weight maintenance and body composition.
During our session, we identify what is most relevant for your goals, symptoms, and current season of life. From there, I may recommend coaching, bloodwork review, functional lab testing, CGM-based support, training, or another next step. The purpose is clarity, not pressure.
Yes. Many clients come to me after trying a lot of things. The next step may not be trying harder. It may be understanding what your body needs now, what is no longer working, and how to simplify your strategy so it fits your life and goals.
Yes. If you already have recent bloodwork, I can help you review it through a functional, pattern-based lens and explain what the markers may suggest in plain English. This does not replace medical care, but it can help you ask better questions, understand trends, and identify lifestyle opportunities.
Yes. Stress can show up physically, not just mentally. For many busy professionals, stress is connected to cravings, bloating, constipation, poor sleep, energy crashes, brain fog, belly fat, and slower recovery. That does not mean stress is the only issue, but it is often a major pattern worth investigating.
