Jennifer founded Active Nutrition, LLC, after becoming part of her local running community and learning that many runners are confused about what to eat to maximize their performance. Many runners tend to focus on their mileage without thinking about what to eat to fuel them through their workouts.

Jennifer holds both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in nutrition. She has counseled clients in areas of weight loss, sports nutrition, and medical nutrition therapy and has given hundreds of presentations to various audiences on the topic of healthy nutrition. Jennifer especially enjoys working with new exercisers and runners, whether they are walking or running a 5k or a marathon.

Her love of distance running started in 2004 after completing her first half marathon. Since then, she has run three marathons as well as many shorter races. Jennifer's goal is to qualify for the Boston Marathon in the next two years.
