Why I Started CC Wellness

I've spent most of my life in medicine. Over 15 years in military healthcare, from the ICU to aeromedical evacuation flights to running an occupational medicine clinic, I've watched people struggle with illnesses like diabetes and other chronic conditions. Every time, I felt the need to do more than treat the symptoms. I wanted to help.

​

The longer I worked in the medical field, the clearer the pattern became. So much of what I saw shared the same root cause: nutrition. What we eat every day shapes how we feel, how we look, and how we live.

​

That's why I started CC Wellness. My mission is simple: to help everyone feel and look the way they want, with a plan grounded in real medical experience and built for real life.
