Shannon has had a strong connection with food since she was a student-athlete at West Chester University. Her connection with food then developed during her time at Ohio University completing her dietetic internship and Masters Degree in Nutrition Sciences. Shannon also holds a certificate in Plant Based Nutrition from Cornell University.
Before joining the OnPoint team, Shannon worked as a clinical dietitian in long-term care and rehabilitation centers in the surrounding Philadelphia area. She is passionate about helping others on their health journey and realizes the struggles, frustrations, and doubts that may come with changing lifestyle habits; however, she recognizes the reward and happiness it brings to people's lives. She wants to be the support and empowerment for people on their very own health journey.

Shannon helped me learn how to eat a flexible, realistic plant-based diet (really a lifestyle change) that has helped me lose 10 lbs and gain confidence, healed my awful digestion, and even improve chronic joint pain. I really have never felt so good in my life.
As someone who always ate a fairly healthy diet and exercise it was frustrating that after my children were born I was unable to lose weight. It was discovered that I have hormonal imbalances due to PCOS. What I've loved about working with Shannon is that we're looking at more than just my nutrition but a bigger picture.
