I was born and raised in Kampala, Uganda, East Africa, and my journey has taken me across continents and industries. As a young adult, I migrated to India to pursue higher education in Baroda, Gujarat, where I earned a BS in Nutrition and a Post Degree in Applied Nutrition and Hotel Management. My academic journey continued in the United States after marriage, where I enrolled in a master's program in Nutrition at the University of Florida, Gainesville.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of working in diverse industries, starting with clinical roles as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) at teaching hospitals like Shands Teaching Hospital in Gainesville, Florida, UCSF, and Stanford. My career later transitioned into the pharma biotech industry, where I held various leadership roles. This journey took me across several states, including Florida, California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. After 35 years in corporate America, I decided it was time to pivot from corporate life to entrepreneurship and pursue my passion for nutrition and wellness. This led to the launch of WiseBite Nutrition LLC in New Jersey, where I now empower women 45+ to navigate menopause with confidence and grace. My approach is rooted in evidence-based holistic lifestyle solutions, focusing on addressing key challenges like hormonal imbalances, gut health issues, weight gain, and body composition shifts by getting to the root causes.

I believe in a no-diet culture, ditching the scale, and rejecting the one-size-fits-all approach—because everyBODY has unique needs. Through my signature "POWER Nutrition Framework" and "12 Fixes to a Healthy You" method, I provide sustainable solutions that help women nourish their bodies, balance their hormones, and flourish through every phase of menopause and beyond. My approach goes beyond symptom management—it's about empowering you to own your health, with NutritionRx as the first step toward achieving vibrant health. Recently, my insights have been featured in VOGUE and Lost It, underscoring my commitment.

I first heard about The Co-Co from a colleague I met during a program we both attended. Our group discussions on how to expand our businesses and networks, especially within our specific niches, inspired me to explore The Co-Co further. I was also fortunate to meet Betty Gavin during a NAWBO session at The Co-Co in Summit, NJ, which further solidified my interest. I’m excited to share my vision and mission with the members here and, most importantly, to continue my lifelong learning journey. The Co-Co plays a pivotal role in both my personal and professional life by providing a supportive community and a platform for growth and connection.
