Hi, I’m Elise—Registered Dietitian, Integrative Health Expert, Founder, and Mama of 5.
I earned my undergraduate degree in Nutrition from the University of Minnesota and graduated summa cum laude with my Master’s in Integrative Health—with a trauma focus—in December 2023… while 39 weeks pregnant.
I’ve spent the last eight years immersed in functional and integrative wellness, helping women get to the root of what’s keeping them unwell and equipping them with practical, restorative tools rooted in faith, science, and real-life education.
I’m the founder of Elevated Integrative Wellness (formerly Eating, Elevated), a Christ-centered wellness practice with two thriving locations in Minnesota. What started as a small private practice has grown into a full-service integrative clinic offering muscle testing, therapeutic modalities, labs, and lifestyle education—supported by a deeply compassionate and skilled team. Growing and scaling has been humbling, but beautiful.
My philosophy is simple: The body can heal in the right conditions. So, my work is focused on creating those conditions—whether through food, functional support, emotional healing, or faith-led encouragement.
I’m also the co-founder of HomeGrown, a farm-to-table restaurant that’s deeply rooted in ancestral principles. We use only sustainable, high-quality proteins and no inflammatory oils—just scratch-made, nourishing food served with heart. Because good food is part of good health.
At the end of the day, my most important work is at home—raising five (soon to be 6) bold, faith-filled, kind, self-aware kids with my incredible husband. We’re not perfect, but we’re committed to breaking generational cycles and cultivating joy, humility, and freedom—together.
If you’re looking to collaborate, join our mission, or learn more about what we’re building—I’d love to connect.
