MEET Courtney

Courtney grew up in a small town in the Pacific Northwest where she spent time with her family camping, skiing, and building bonfires. At the age of 6, Courtney began to experience health complications, so her family radically changed their diet, household products, and lifestyle to improve their health together.

For years, Courtney worked with many naturopaths and herbal experts to find ways to support her body. She began to develop a passion for natural healing and knew that a healthy diet was the key to healing many ailments.

Courtney graduated with her Associates Degree at the same time she graduated from high school in preparation to attend Bastyr University, the nation's leading alternative medicine school. Here, she began to expand her knowledge of holistic healing and whole foods.

After Bastyr, Courtney continued her education to earn her Washington State license as a Certified Nutritionist by pursing her master's degree. She graduated in 2017 with her Master of Public Health in Nutrition degree from Liberty University. This is where she discovered a love for community-level health intervention, and why she now secretly dreams of playing a role in health care politics one day.

Prior to joining Persona, Courtney worked as a wellness coach, nutrition consultant, and aerobic dance instructor with multiple group exercise certifications. She also worked in a mobile health care clinic, providing free health care to the uninsured. She enjoyed her experience working one-on-one with clients and loves watching people succeed in their health endeavors.

As a nutritionist at Persona, Courtney focuses on drug-nutrient interactions, research for supplement recommendations, developing supplement blends, and enjoys writing for the blog. In her free time, Courtney loves spending time with her high school sweet heart and their dog, Koby. She currently works as a Public Health Specialist for a non-profit organization serving Africa and likes to travel, dance, and spend her weekends hiking or snowshoeing. This year she is preparing to ski in Switzerland and summit Mt. Adams.
