Hi! I’m Nicole — a compassionate, evidence-based Registered Dietitian who believes nutrition should make your life better, not restrict it. My mission is to help you build realistic, sustainable habits through supportive, judgment-free coaching that aligns with your goals, preferences, and lifestyle.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Food Science and Human Nutrition from the University of Florida and completed my dietetic internship with NutraCo. Over the years, I’ve worked in both clinical and private practice settings, supporting a wide range of clients — from athletes and active individuals to those navigating metabolic health, cholesterol management, and mindful eating. My own background as a former athlete fuels my passion for making nutrition both approachable and enjoyable.

I specialize in performance nutrition for athletes and active individuals, strength and body composition goals like muscle building and fat loss, weight loss, metabolic and cardiovascular health, and practical nutrition strategies for busy, on-the-go lifestyles.

When we work together, you can expect a positive, flexible, and personalized approach to nutrition. In our first session, we’ll dive into your habits, routines, and goals, and build a plan you actually feel good about following. I use tools like food journaling and progress tracking to guide adjustments along the way and offer ongoing support and accountability between check-ins — because real progress comes from consistency, not perfection.

If you’d like to connect outside of our sessions, you can also find me on Instagram @nicolegonyardn, where I share evidence-based tips, simple meal ideas, and realistic strategies for fueling your life with confidence
