Founder of Mindfull Nutrition

My practice is built with the strategy of using food-as-medicine, evidence- and practice-based protocols, intentional exercise, and integrative approaches to empower clients to heal and thrive from within.

I’ve worked with an array of patients ranging from elderly/dementia, spinal cord injury to weight management/bariatric surgery, eating disorders, pre/gestational diabetes and diabetes. I’ve worked in long-term care facilities, acute care rehabilitation hospitals and primary care settings.

My passion for teaching others how to use food-as-medicine and the mind-body connection stems from my experiences as a mom of two young girls, nutrition degrees and my own personal experience using functional nutrition throughout my pregnancies and postpartum, while nursing and feeding a baby with food sensitivities. I’ve also struggled with my own body image issues and disordered eating habits as a teen - these experiences have allowed me to grow, heal and help others!

My nutrition philosophy is built around YOU - YOU are in control of your own destiny and I’m here to help guide YOU in the right direction. I want to meet YOU where YOU are at today and empower YOU down the road to success. Whatever your healthy journey is, whatever you are struggling with, I want to help YOU be the best YOU that YOU can be. My goal is to cultivate your mind, body and soul NOW so that we can have a positive impact on our future generations to come….it all starts with YOU—-let me guide YOU!

I LOVE what I do and I can’t wait to share my knowledge and passion with YOU.

Hello! My name is Jill and I am from San Antonio, Texas. I completed my undergraduate, masters and dietetic internship at Abilene Christian University. My experience has covered acute care settings to long-term care settings. My masters is in community nutrition and my internship focused on homelessness and poverty.

My passion for food and nutrition began early on in the home with my mother. Many of my favorite childhood memories are in the kitchen, watching my mother prepare delicious homemade meals, learning techniques from her and discussing the food we were making that day. I then took a health class later on in high school and was given a project about heart health, then began research on what foods would help best to prevent heart disease and was fascinated by what food can do for your body! This interest launched me into a science based major in college and eventually landing on nutrition as my focus.

As I began to dive deeper into nutrition, I wanted to be able to share this knowledge with others! To give others the tools that are needed to live a healthy and balanced life via nutrition!

My life’s passion is for building up our community around us through the power of food. Equipping you with the knowledge needed and helping guide you through the world of nutrition! My goal is to best help you connect your mind, body and soul using the power of food!!
