Janie is a certified Physician Assistant (PA-C) with a passion for getting to the root of health issues.  With over ten years in primary care, she has seen firsthand how the healthcare system often fell short when it came to prevention and long-term wellness.

To better serve her patients, Janie earned certifications in nutrition (Precision Nutrition Level 1) and strength coaching for those with special health considerations (Certified Special Populations Specialist).  This better equips her to address the need to educate people on sustainable, lifestyle-driven health solutions that are greatly lacking in conventional medicine.  

She strives to empower people with practical strategies and sustainable habits that support long-term physical and mental well-being. She believes that when people understand and own their health, they unlock a better way of living that makes them stronger, healthier, and more resilient.
