Foundational training in nutritional science, dietetics, and foods as medicine.
1,200+ hours of supervised practice across clinical, community, and food service management rotations. Leadership & Project Management concentration.
Advanced functional nutrition training through the IFNA in partnership with the Institute for Functional Medicine.
Clinical nutrition assessments, diagnoses, and intervention planning with multidisciplinary care teams.
I received my Bachelors of Science in Human Nutrition and Foods at the University of Houston. In between graduating and completing my dietetic internship at Illinois State University, I spent time overseas, completing a semester in an MBA program at Birzeit University in Palestine and a nine-month program in Islamic Sciences and Classical/Qur’anic Arabic through Al-Madina and Ibn Khaldun University in Istanbul.
I went on to receive advanced training in Integrative and Functional Nutrition from The Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy (IFNA), in educational partnership with The Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM).
I'm currently licensed in the state of Texas & helping clients with their health and nutrition goals from various states virtually.
You can find me getting my daily 15-20k steps on a nature trail, checking my sleep score, reading on my kindle, basking in the sun, baking sourdough bread, or trying out new cafes with family and friends!
Functional Nutrition Dietitian | Founder of Made with Barakah
I'm a Functional Nutrition Registered Dietitian and the founder of Made with Barakah, a root-cause nutrition practice for women who are tired of being told their labs are "normal" while they feel anything but.
This journal is where I share the clinical knowledge, functional tools, and honest conversations I wish more women had access to.
