My Motivation

The countless children and families I’ve cared for over the years are the heart of my motivation. Their stories, struggles, and triumphs have inspired me to dedicate my life to improving children’s health through prevention-focused care.

 

Over the past three decades, I’ve witnessed a concerning shift — a rise in childhood obesity and the early onset of diseases once seen only in adults, such as type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, fatty liver disease, and high cholesterol. These aren’t just statistics. They’re children facing lifelong health challenges far too early.

 

I’m committed to changing that.

 

If we don’t act now, this generation of children may live shorter, unhealthier lives. But we can reverse this trend. With the right knowledge, support, and nutrition, we can give kids a stronger start — and a healthier future.

​

My mission is simple: to preserve children’s health, prevent chronic disease, and help every child thrive — well into adulthood.
