ABOUT ME
Expert in the field of Medical Nutrition Therapy
- My name is Veronica Carles. I was born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela and moved to Seattle, to attend Seattle Pacific University where I majored in Nutritional Sciences. After graduation, I interned at Sea Mar Community Health Centers. I became a registered dietitian in 2011.
- Since a young age, nutrition has been a drive of mine. At age 15, I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) which causes hormonal imbalances among other complications. When not managed adequately, weight gain is a common consequence. This sparked my curiosity and subsequent commitment to learn about medical nutrition therapy management and the impact food has on our bodies.
MY LIFE
Balance is the Key
I use social media, especially Instagram, to share details about my lifestyle.
My principal objective is to show you a real-life person with similar struggles as you, with the intention of revealing how I pursue balance; so, you can learn to achieve it yourself.
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit. I am thrilled to help you on the journey ahead.

MY ACTIVITIES
Exercise lover
Exercise is a very important part of my life. It not only helps me feel strong and fit, but it centers me and let’s be honest, it keeps me sane. On a regular basis, I practice:
- Hot yoga.
- Run.
- Work with a physical trainer.
I also love doing fun and dynamic workouts such as:
- Barry´s Bootcamp.
- Soul-cycle
Running started off as a true challenge for me because I use to hate it. The irony, now it’s a deep passion in my life that drives me to push myself and has allowed me to evolve physically.
As we grow in our own journey, our perception of what is difficult changes. This allows us to explore new boundaries and consider new challenges. Don’t be intimidated by other people’s goals or feel less because of it; do you! Persistence, dedication and commitment will take you there.
Thank you very much!
