Kelsey received her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Texas at Arlington and has 7 years of experience in the neonatal intensive care unit. While she loved working with new families in the NICU, she felt called to serve patients in a more preventative way and earned her nutrition certification through Restorative Wellness Solutions. Kelsey is certified to interpret functional labs related to gut health and designs individualized diet and supplement protocols based on the results.

When she is not working, Kelsey enjoys exploring new places with her husband, and staying active through weightlifting, rock climbing, running, and yoga.
