From Rhode Island to TEDx.
Born and raised in the tiny state of Rhode Island, Maryann became infatuated with learning everything she could about nutrition, diet and behavior change, and with how to simplify it for herself, her family and everyone else.
Her story
Science, brand and the people in between.
Maryann completed dual bachelor’s degrees in Biological Sciences and Nutrition and Dietetics, a master’s degree in Food and Nutrition, and is completing her doctorate in psychology.
She has lent her expertise to online and print publications including HuffPost, Shape and Men’s Journal, and to news affiliate appearances on NBC, CBS and ABC. She founded Walsh Nutrition Consulting, Inc. in 2017 and has spent years supporting patients in psychiatric residential and detox care as a mental health dietitian.
Today she splits her work between national brands, stages and a clinical practice focused on MCAS, POTS, EDS, histamine intolerance and mental health nutrition, with a Palm Beach perspective and national reach.
Off the clockMaryann is a single mom by choice to her daughter, Isla, and to Cannoli, her maltipoo.
The path
Fifteen years, every setting.
Public health, long-term care, medical sales, mental health and consulting: the range behind her ability to speak to patients and boardrooms alike.
