RAVENNA

Prior to becoming a nutritionist, Carolina had a decade long career in finance as a licensed stockbroker. The long hours and high stress environment combined with less than ideal lifestyle left her in a state of constant fatigue. She took a leave of absence to focus on improving her health and fertility. Having experienced the medicinal power of dietary change in her own healing journey, she became determined to investigate how nutrition and lifestyle impact health. She has a passion for metabolic health and chronic illness, with a special focus on fertility, reversing PCOS, macronutrient composition, and meal timing.

Carolina believes nutrition is the foundation of health. She utilizes a whole food approach and works collaboratively with clients and the Vida team in the health building process. She concentrates on education to support clients in achieving their goals with a plan tailored to their needs and preferences. Carolina recognizes the challenges of implementing lasting change, so she guides clients with detailed methods of integrating food preparation within their daily routine. Her goal is to support clients to impart sustainable and enjoyable changes that fit within their lifestyle to not only heal, but thrive with sustained energy and endurance, stable mood, consistent sleep, no cravings, and no digestive issues or bloating.

In pursuit of lifelong learning and research, Carolina is also working towards becoming a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (IFMCP). She enjoys hiking in the forests of the PNW with her three sons, de-stressing with Yin yoga, weightlifting, and playing with new recipes.
