ABOUT

Hi, I’m Alessandra

A Little About Me

Originally from São Paulo, Brazil, I moved to the United States as a child with my family and now live in Pittsburgh with my husband and two young children.

My passion for nutrition and healthy living grew through both personal experience and professional study. I became more intentional about caring for my health while also learning how to create balance - enjoy nourishing food, movement, and everyday wellness without guilt, rigidity, or obsession.

During pregnancy and postpartum, I experienced firsthand how hard it can be to find clear, practical guidance around healthy living.

This led me to create a more supportive and realistic approach for myself - one that helped me feel well, nourished. and balanced without unnecessary sacrifice.

I also went through significant digestive health challenges, including multiple bowel obstructions. That experience deepened my understanding of gut health. inflammation, and the powerful role nutrition can play in supporting the body.

Those experiences shaped the way I work today and strengthened my belief that healthy eating should feel simple, supportive, and sustainable.

With love,

Alessandra

Healthy eating should support your life — not take it over.

MY APPROACH

I help women simplify healthy eating, feel better in their bodies, and create a balanced, sustainable approach to food and health.

Through nutrition coaching, mindset support, and simple nourishing recipes, I support women in making healthy living feel easier, enjoyable, and approachable.
