Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women and Children

I will always be grateful to Dr Richard Allen and Mrs Anna Marie Schaefer, MPH, RD, for my first ‘real’ job as a Metabolic Dietitian, and to Dr Mark Korson for his mentorship.  I have worked as a Metabolic Dietitian in the US: University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, St. Louis Children’s Hospital, Tufts Medical Center and in Canada: BC Children’s Hospital, Vancouver. I am currently a Clinical Dietitian at Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women and Children in Honolulu, HI.  I have been privileged to learn and work with amazing and knowledgeable metabolic clinicians.

My biggest inspiration was gained from working with individuals and their families living with metabolic disorders; those who face and overcome challenges every day. It is wonderful to see that every year brings more knowledge and improvements to medical and nutrition therapy for individuals living with metabolic disorders.
