Staying active and always learning

Beyond the Nutrition Desk

While my days are dedicated to guiding individuals towards their nutrition goals, there’s a whole world of passions and interests that define who I am outside of work. Nothing brings me more joy than spending quality time with family and friends (and my three cats). Most evenings, you’ll often find me on the couch reading one of my latest book choices.

When I have the opportunity, I also enjoy traveling and exploring new places to learn about different cultures, enriching both my personal and professional experiences.

As a former college swimmer and coach, the love for exercise runs deep. Whether it’s swimming, hitting the gym or meeting a friend for a long walk, staying active is a non-negotiable part of my lifestyle.

Game days are a special affair for me as well, as I passionately cheer on my favorite sports teams. From the Gamecocks and Atlanta United FC to the Philadelphia Eagles, I am an avid supporter of my teams.

My success is due to completely changing my eating habits and exercise regiment. Big shout out to Charlene!

Being a professional soccer athlete, fueling my body with the right foods have a direct impact on my career. I came to Charlene not knowing much about nutrition and wanted to reach a specific goal. With her help, I can confidently say that I am one step closer to my goal and becoming a better athlete.

Charlene was wonderful to work with! She met with my teenage daughter to discuss healthy options and the importance of well balanced and timely meals. My daughter connected with her immediately and was open to the meal suggestions that Charlene provided for her! She also explained the importance of not skipping meals and having a healthy body image. We had a great experience with Charlene and highly recommend her!

Charlene had quite the challenge educating my teenage son (who won’t listen to me)! She was able to ask questions he actually answered and gave him so many examples of simple changes to help him meet his healthy weight gain/muscle gain goals. I’ve noticed him eating the foods recommended at better times through the day as well as eating more healthy options for snacks/in between meals. He’s already seeing results. 100% recommend.

Charlene is wonderful to work with. She helped me come up with a sustainable plan that I was able to follow. I have lost weight and feel great. I recommend using her any time you need help getting back on track and coming up with a plan to make it a lifestyle versus a quick fix.
