Dude is a lifelong health and wellness enthusiast and amateur athlete.  Before a brief cross country season in college, Dude was a 2x state champion in the mile, the two mile, and the mile relay. After his first marathon, Dude became interested in Ultramarathons and his endurance career peaked in 2006 when he ran 16 ultramarathons in one year.  Dude has also done some fairly extreme self-supported distance challenges, including two double crossings of the grand canyon, and a 143 mile 3 day adventure in the High Sierra in California. He has also summited the 3rd highest peak in North America, and many smaller mountains.

Like many people in today’s society, by mid-life Dude found himself drifting away from being active as the pursuits of career and family consumed so much time and attention.  By 2012, Dude was 50 lbs overweight with aches and pains all over, culminating in a back injury that left him debilitated on the floor, unable to move.

The injured back was a wake up call that led Dude on a personal journey back to health and wellness. He lost 50 lbs, started running again, placed 3rd in the Speedgolf World Championships, and earned a Health Coaching certification from the Primal Health Coach Institute.

Dude now coaches people how to regain their health after a lifetime of office work and modern lifestyle that keeps us sedentary, indoors, and eating processed foods.  Dude has made the journey himself and has tremendous passion for people who find it difficult to extract themselves from the modern traps that keep us unhealthy. His mission is to find these people and guide them back to health and vitality.

Functional Medicine Health Coach @ Wellnessprout LLC

I have been a Registered Nurse since 2005 and a Board-Certified Lactation Consultant since 2011. Over the years, I have worked in a variety of areas including Postpartum Care, Neonatal Intensive Care and Post Anesthesia Care. I founded Mommy’s Angels Postpartum Care Services, LLC in 2010 and have been teaching mothers the art of breastfeeding ever since.

I lived what I thought was a healthy lifestyle and for the most part considered myself “healthy.” However, I regularly experienced different symptoms that I thought were “annoying but normal” and assumed they were “things that I just had to live with” such as debilitating pre-menstrual cramps and headaches that I managed by taking round the clock Ibuprofen. After moving to Austin, I started experiencing seasonal allergies that developed into a year-round challenge that required regular allergy medication and occasional steroid inhaler use. I also experienced extreme fatigue, which I attributed to being a working mom. When I brought these symptoms up with my doctors, I was assured that all my labs were normal and was told not to worry.

My journey into holistic health began with the devastating news of my mother’s diagnosis of endometrial cancer in 2011. I started researching ways to help her through chemo treatments. A few years later, I worked with a naturopath who helped me balance my hormones and address my gut health. After several months of working with him, I was amazed that I no longer required my regular allergy medications or Ibuprofen to manage my symptoms. I am happy to say that I have since overcome all those “annoying” issues and am living my best life!

I was so fascinated by what I learned through the years that I decided to further my education by joining The School of Applied Functional Medicine and began training to become a functional medicine health coach. I completed my studies in 2021 and have been applying the knowledge I have learned to help my clients as well as friends and families achieve great improvements in their health. I look forward to helping you on your journey to optimal health!
