Stephanie is a registered dietitian and certified personal trainer based in Dallas, Texas. She first became interested in nutrition after watching her mother navigate gastric bypass surgery, igniting a passion for sustainable, nutrient-dense dietary patterns that support an active lifestyle. After working as a clinical dietitian and later as a research dietitian at MD Anderson Cancer Center, she fell in love with writing as a way to provide evidence-based health information to large numbers of people.

Stephanie is an expert in plant-based nutrition and has personally followed a vegan diet for over 10 years, but enjoys writing about a variety of nutrition and fitness-related topics. She loves to stay active through weightlifting, cycling, and the occasional pickleball game.
