Meet Noel
As a very curious, active and determined (some may say stubborn) kid who was told that I had Crohn’s Disease at 13 years old, understanding more about my diagnosis became one of the key motivators behind my choice to ultimately pursue a career in Functional Nutrition.
For years I have researched my condition and aimed to learn the best ways to support my body in optimal health. After many years of trial-and-error, various medications and, to be honest, attempts at ignoring the diagnosis altogether, I found myself going back to school to pursue a Master's of Science in Human Nutrition.
I would be lying, however, if I told you that my diagnosis was the driving factor behind the creation of Nutrition with Noel. It is because of the people I get to meet who show up wanting better for themselves. NwN exists to provide solutions for struggles that others thought they may never find answers to, and to help the lightbulb go off as a person realizes his/her own ability to create lasting lifestyle change. It is an honor to watch clients take ownership of their health and step into all that they were created to be with a new and improved quality of life.
I believe that food is medicine, that the preparation of delicious meals should be fulfilling, not overwhelming, and that an effective nutrition plan brings rewarding solutions and compromises rather than restrictive complications to the table. As a lover of movement, cooking, learning and connecting with community, my hope is to use this platform to inspire others to find joy in their own unique version of a healthy and active lifestyle.
When I am not in the office, you can typically find me walking Greenville's great trails with my german shepherd, Eden, working at our local Farmer's Market or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen!

Meet Kamille
Kamille is an avid learner who is passionate about supporting individuals on their own unique health journey by helping them realize their bodies' design and capacity to heal given the right tools mentally, spiritually, and physically. After spending the last 20 years of her life on her own healing journey, she faced multiple doctors who told her "we don't know what to do" and was given treatments that were only a band-aid to her symptoms, leading her to pursue integrative medicine for answers. That journey led her to Seattle, WA for several years where she developed a love and appreciation for alternative healing modalities and her heart was ignited to help others in a more well-rounded way. She currently resides in Eastern North Carolina where she works as a certified Laser Therapist, using photobiomodulation to provide relief to those experiencing a variety of symptoms and health concerns. She is also continuing her work in functional nutrition, having completed a Certification in Functional Nutrition through the Functional Nutrition Alliance, a program accredited by the American Association of Wellness Practitioners. She looks forward to utilizing all that she has learned both from her studies and through her personal experience over 20 years of working with some of the top international integrative medical physicians in her own work with clients through Nutrition with Noel.
Meet Katlyn
Katlyn was born and raised in Greenville, NC where her passion for food and nutrition started at a young age. After watching her parents transform their lifestyles through healthy eating, she realized how powerful food can be in shaping long-term health and wellness. In high school, she faced her own challenges with disordered eating and gut issues, which led her to work with a Holistic Nutritionist. Through personalized nutrition, supplementation and lifestyle change, she experienced firsthand how life-changing the right guidance can be. That experience inspired her to pursue a career in Nutrition so that she could help others find the same support, healing, and confidence in their health.
Katlyn earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Nutrition Science from NC State University and has since returned home to Greenville, NC with the goal of giving back to her community. She is grateful to be able to do this not only through Nutrition with Noel, but also at Fresh Vibes; where she shares her knowledge and passion for nutrition with others—while also making a pretty great smoothie! Outside of nutrition, Katlyn enjoys working out, reading, exploring new coffee shops, and spending time with her animals on the farm.
