Why This Approach Is Different
Many people piece together nutrition advice and workout programs from different sources.
While well-intentioned, those plans are often disconnected — leading to frustration, stalled progress, and confusion about what truly works.
As a Registered Dietitian and Personal Trainer, I offer a more comprehensive level of guidance. Clients may work with me for nutrition coaching, private training, or both — but my depth of experience in each ensures that every recommendation is thoughtful, aligned, and grounded in evidence.
Nutrition is approached with clinical precision.
Training is designed with longevity in mind.
And every plan is tailored to your individual physiology, goals, and lifestyle.
No extremes.
No generic templates.
Just personalized, professional guidance designed for lasting results.

No Extremes. No Gimmicks. Just Results That Last.
You don’t need another restrictive diet or punishing workout plan.
You need a personalized approach that begins with understanding why your goals matter — and what has or hasn’t worked for you in the past.
My philosophy is rooted in uncovering the deeper drivers behind your health goals, then building a strategy around your body, your lifestyle, and your long-term wellbeing. The result is sustainable progress that feels supportive, realistic, and lasting.

Summer has been the biggest help for me to get my nutrition and gains where I need it to be. I was stuck on a plateau slowly gaining (fat) weight. She helped me break through the plateau, drop weight, gain mass and beat my personal PRs. She is very personable and friendly and is wise when it comes to questions no matter how odd or dumb they may sound to you. Highly recommend summer If you're needing to break through a plateau or just need proper guidance when it comes to eating right and staying fit. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Client Experiences
Summer is AMAZING! Like she definitely knows what she’s talking about and her energy is infectious! The fact that she’s also a personal trainer is also incredible because she combines both areas on knowledge that really inspires and motivates you to be the healthiest version of yourself!

I trained with Summer for 1 1/2 years and lost 10+ pounds. We trained for 1 hour a week with abs/arms as our focus and she taught me a lot about different exercises, HIIT and the importance of nutrition. But more importantly, I picked Summer for her personality. Our sessions quickly turned into hour-long support sessions for difficult things inside and outside of work and her honesty, enthusiasm, and wit are all that make her so relatable and such a fun trainer.
