Hola!

Hi, I’m Meli, a nutritionist, fitness expert, and wellness coach with 17 years of experience helping people thrive. Originally from Caracas, Venezuela, I’m passionate about supporting individuals in overcoming challenges to achieve their health and performance goals.

My journey to wellness began at age 11 after experiencing a traumatic event, leading to years of stress and panic attacks. Through functional nutrition and lifestyle changes, I found a path to healing and resilience. Today, I help others reduce inflammation, improve energy, manage stress, and optimize performance—whether in fitness, work, or life.

My Approach

I specialize in reducing chronic inflammation, a key driver of fatigue, autoimmunity, hormone imbalances, and poor performance. By addressing the root causes of inflammation through personalized nutrition, movement, and nervous system regulation, I help clients balance cortisol, restore energy, and enhance overall well-being. My approach is designed to empower you to overcome chronic fatigue, improve gut health, and regain hormonal harmony, so you can feel vibrant, focused, and in control of your health.

I hold a Master’s in Nutrition, a Post-Graduate Sports Nutrition Diploma, and I’m a Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS). I’m also pursuing my Functional Medicine Certification and have over 20 fitness certifications, including Personal Training and Group Exercise.

Experience & Impact

I’ve worked with clients like Apple, Google, Amazon, and Kaiser Permanente, and I’ve led wellness programs worldwide. As a former Zumba Fitness choreographer and presenter, I’ve taught over 600 workshops and 5,000 live-stream classes, reaching thousands globally. I’m now focused on offering science-backed nutrition and wellness programs virtually to help people feel their best.

Let’s Work Together!

Whether you’re looking to reduce inflammation, boost energy, or optimize performance, I’m here to support your journey to better health. Let’s create a plan that works for you, so you can thrive!
