about

Abby is a National Board Certified health coaching specialist at Risely Health.

In 2019, Abby’s son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes (at age 7). In an instant, she went from knowing very little about the condition to consuming as much information as possible. She was shocked to learn how many variables influenced her son's T1D management on a day-to-day basis and how challenging it was to find needed support and solutions. 

With empathy as her top personal strength, Abby was drawn into the field of health coaching to support individuals and guide them toward change. She is a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) and has worked in the health coaching industry for the last ten years, ranging from an academic medical center, to corporate health, to digital health coaching. Her work at Risely allows her passions to intersect and she is honored to work with individuals (and parents) to help them feel happier, healthier, and less alone as they navigate through life with Type 1 Diabetes.

Abby and her family live just outside of Nashville, Tennessee. While she's a fan of backpacking, camping, CrossFit, and reading through her perpetual stack of books, most days you’ll find her trying to balance being a full-time working mom while being married to a firefighter. The favorite member of their household is Van Gogh, their one-eared rescue dog.
