Hi I'm Sofia!

My passion for health and wellness began right out of the womb, as Dr. Jackie Fields is my amazing Mom! Growing up I was exposed to health, wellness and functional medicine practices everyday, which got me excited about food and nutrition from a young age!  During high school I worked in the Healing Gardens Medicinal Store. I heard stories from patients about their personal health journeys; this made me want to help people along their health journey using nutrition and lifestyle.

I am currently doing my Masters in Nutrition Science at the University of Utah. I will complete my masters in Dietetics in 2024. My research is focused on metabolic adaptations in response to weight loss. My passion lies in gut health and supporting an optimal weight loss journey.
I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Nutrition Science from Montana State University. On campus I was involved in research that evaluated the relationships between the microbiome, diet and inflammation. With growing excitement and knowledge about microbiome health, I wanted to learn more! A few months ago I became a Certified Functional Nutrition Coach and I am now excited to be a part of the Healing Gardens Team! When I am not nerding out on nutrition or cooking yummy food, I like to be in the mountains mountain biking, trail running or skiing!
