ABOUT MARCY

I believe in a no-nonsense approach to nutrition counseling. My goal is to help you feel better, whatever that looks like to you. I can provide you practical tips and advice on leading a more healthful lifestyle. I am also trained in treating IBS by using the FODMAP diet.

Professor, Chef, & Dietitian 

​I like to tell people I've had 9 lives and I'm currently on my 10th. I work full time at SUNY Oneonta as Assistant Professor in the Foods and Nutrition program where I teach the next generation of dietitians. I am also a writer, researcher, recipe developer, and chef. 

After growing up in a small town in Ohio, my family and I lived around the US -- Whidbey Island, WA; Chicago; Bozeman, Montana. I'm happy to call New Berlin home now.
