Carli Davis is a functional sports dietitian who helps active women fuel smarter, prevent burnout (aka REDs), and support hormone health—without fad diets or pseudoscience. A lifelong runner and former collegiate athlete, she's especially passionate about working with endurance athletes, but enjoys helping anyone who values their health and wants to feel their best.

Carli began her career in clinical nutrition in 2017, specializing in nutrition support in the ICU and for those undergoing bone marrow transplants. In 2021, she transitioned to preventive health and launched her own private practice in 2024 after relocating to Austin. Her approach is deeply integrative and personalized—combining functional lab testing with root-cause exploration to go beyond the "everything looks normal" response when the body is clearly asking for more.

She's on a mission to help women avoid the pitfalls of underfueling and return to a thriving state—where performance, hormone balance, and day-to-day energy align. Carli also values collaboration and often partners with other providers, such as physicians and therapists, to ensure her clients receive well-rounded support.
