“ I have extensive food allergies that have cropped up in the last 6 years and  asked Linda to help me figure out how to eat enough to continue doing Ironman Distance Triathlons.  Her attention to detail and wealth of knowledge with nutrition proved to be the asset I needed to succeed!”

"Before my first Ironman, Linda took a thorough look at my daily diet. She identified a couple deficiencies and offered alternatives that got all aspects of my diet back in balance. Linda also helped with my nutrition and hydration during my long training days and helped me get to the finish line on race day. I will continue to utilize her expertise!" -- Marty Lindgren, Ironman Triathlete

I have known Linda for 29 years as a classmate, co-worker, and friend and have always been in awe of her continued growth through her schooling, working, and raising a family.

Throughout the time I have known Linda she has always demonstrated a professional attitude and created a warm and inviting atmosphere around her. She is a confident, knowledgeable, and dedicated person. I know that her skills and continuing knowledge of nutrition have helped numerous individuals live longer, healthier lives.

She is an individual who makes those who are lucky enough to share her time, healthier humans, mentally and physically.

She has taught in both individual and group settings to both patients and health care professionals, is creative in her approach and teaches to all education levels well. Linda and I worked together for almost five years at Harborview Medical Center where she took care of medical patients whose needs ranged from artificial nutrition support in an intensive care unit setting to diet education for medical therapy of various disease states and conditions including: diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, HIV, weight management, pulmonary, liver, GI and kidney disorders. She also has expertise in nutrition therapy for swallowing problems. Linda has developed educational materials to help her audiences learn well. She has a wealth of multicultural experience, has worked with people of various literacy and education levels and can tailor her approach in all of these situations. You will enjoy working with her very much.
