Founder and Co-Owner of BTS Nutrition
NASM Certified Nutrition Specialist
ETP Performance Nutrition Coach
I am a proud Army wife and mother to 3 rambunctious boys. Prior to being a mom, I taught high school history and coached various high school athletic teams for around 8 years. While I have always been athletic and involved in sports, my true journey to health and fitness began after the birth of my 2 boys (2 babies in 2 years will do that to you). I wanted to make sure I always had enough energy and strength to keep up with them. I started CrossFit in 2007 and have been hooked ever since. I quickly realized that you can't out train a bad diet or perform the way you want to in gym and life without paying attention to your nutrition. As a result I decided to get my nutrition coaching certifications through Eat to Perform and the National Academy of Sports Medicine because I truly believe nutrition is imperative to our performance and lifestyle goals. I love helping people become the best versions of themselves. God has truly blessed me as a mom, a wife and an athlete and my passion is to serve others through helping them make the same positive life changes that I did as they break through whatever is holding them back and commit to a sustainable and attainable lifelong journey in health and wellness.

Co-Owner of BTS Nutrition
CrossFit Level 1 & 2 Trainer
B.A. from University of Georgia
I am a mom of two little girls, Ella and Sophie, and am an avid CrossFitter. My husband and I opened up CrossFit Dwala 9 years ago and it has become the most fulfilling career. During these 9 years of CrossFit gym ownership, I have also competed at a high level in CrossFit: Games Team 2015, 2016, 2018 and Regionals Team level 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018. My experience with sports based and weight loss nutrition began almost 7 years ago and has been something I have been as equally as passionate as CrossFit because the adage "You can never out train a bad diet" is an absolute truth. The clients in our CrossFit facility that have the most progress and the most long term success are those that embrace learning how to fuel their bodies correctly. I am proud to be a part of the BTS Nutrition team so I can further the education on proper fueling with athletes of all backgrounds and goals!
Jenn DeSabio
Masters of Science in Applied Nutrition
CrossFit Level 2 Trainer
I hold an MS in Applied Nutrition -with a focus in Obesity and Eating Disorders- from Canisius College, and I am a CrossFit Level 2 Trainer. I previously worked as a CrossFit trainer, helping individuals from 13 to 60+ to become better versions of themselves through fitness and performance nutrition coaching. I am a believer in being well-rounded when it comes to fitness and enjoy resistance training, running, cycling, yoga and long walks with my family. I believe food is something that should be enjoyed and it doesn’t have to be unhealthy for it to satisfy your taste buds. I also understand that food is fuel and fueling your body the right way will yield the best results. But, how do you get there? Learning to instill healthy habits is key to better health. That’s where I come in – I look forward to working with you, helping to create a successful picture of total nutrition for yourself.

Registered and Licensed Dietitian
NASM Certified Personal Trainer
BS in Human & Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University
MS in Health Sciences with a Concentration in Nutrition & Dietetics from Georgia State University
Hello! My name is Todd Reinkemeyer, a Registered and Licensed Dietitian. My entry into the nutrition world was a personal one that started shortly after finishing my Bachelor’s degree. One day that summer I was walking up a flight of stairs and it hit me, “Wow. This is way more difficult than it should be.” From that point forward, I made a conscious decision to invest in my health. I did a lot of introspection on my personal nutrition and initiated many new exercise habits, such as including a regular resistance training and running regimen. A few years later, and the fruits of my labor had transformed into several completed marathons, mountain summits, and an overall much more positive outlook on my personal health.
From there, I realized that I needed to share this experience with others. I went back to school and attained my Master’s degree in Health Sciences with a concentration in nutrition from Georgia State University. I have counseled in a variety of different nutrition environments, completing over 1200 supervised practice hours in clinical, food service, community, and sports settings. My passions lie where nutrition meets performance. I’ve seen how nutrition has personally impacted my ability to perform in a variety of endeavors, and I want to help you see this impact as well!
Outside of nutrition, I enjoy running, hiking, traveling, golf, racquetball, Braves baseball, and many other things in this adventure we call life.

CrossFit Level 1 Trainer (CF-OL1)
Hey! My name is Jake Swindal. I am a father of two boys and currently living in Tokyo due to my wife’s work. We will be moving back home in 2024 but while away, I am a HIIT, Bootcamp, and Spartan Coach in Tokyo.
My fitness journey began at the end of 2018. At the age of 30 with our first son on the way, I had a doctor’s visit that changed my life. If I didn’t make changes, I would be placed on blood pressure medication. My diet/exercise were horrible so...from that point, I decided to make a change to be a better, healthier example for my son. After 6 months, I lost 30+ lbs and reversed all negative health concerns. I became addicted to the consistency and becoming better than yesterday. In doing so, I completed events from 5k to Ironman to Ultra Marathon. However, once Covid began I ran too much while still being in the mindset of a “cut” diet and didn’t realize the incremental damage I was sustaining. By June of 2020, I could not run more than a few miles without knee pain. I was wasting away and didn't feel strong, capable, and confident anymore. After 2 months of trying to figure things out, I joined CrossFit Dwala and my life was changed for a second time. I quickly found the benefits of community, performance, and most importantly proper nutrition to sustain high intensity output for everyday workouts and endurance events. I became stronger and faster while knee pain faded. I learned how to take care of myself through proper movements, self-care, and diet. In quickly seeing benefits, I wanted to learn and help others. Within a year, I became a NASM Personal Trainer, a CrossFit L1 Coach, and a NSCA Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist. I enjoy learning the boundaries of potential and want to help others through my own knowledge and experience so they can strive to learn their full capabilities. I am excited to be part of the BTS Nutrition Team and look forward to working with you to unlock the potential available behind proper nutrition and exercise.
Josh Mullen
NASM Certified Sports Nutrition Coach
CrossFit Level 1 Trainer
Hi! My name is Josh Mullen and I hold a Sports Nutrition Coach certification and am a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer. I started CrossFit in 2018 but really started pushing myself in 2020 during COVID. That’s also when I first started receiving nutrition coaching myself. I was able to see firsthand how important nutrition was and how I could lose body fat while maintaining muscle mass and performance in the gym. In 2022 I started coaching CrossFit and have loved seeing our members progress and do things they didn’t think they could do. I’m excited to combine fitness coaching with nutrition to help clients feel and perform their best!
For my personal fitness interests, I like setting new challenges for myself. I’ve competed in several CrossFit competitions, and have completed 5 half marathons, 4 triathlons, and 1 Spartan ultramarathon.
Outside of health and fitness, I work in HR for my day job. When I’m not working, you’ll find me spending time with my family, relaxing at a coffee shop, hiking with my friends and our dogs, or reading.
Alex Lewis
NASM Nutrition Certification
Hi! My name is Alex, and I have been active in fitness my entire life. I was an elementary school teacher before my first child was born, and then switched my focus to being a stay-at-home mom. When faced with postpartum body composition changes courtesy of multiple children, I found that exercise was only part of the big picture. A well-balanced diet was just the complement I needed to fully reach my goals. I know what it’s like to manage carpool, t-ball practice, swimming lessons, and more — all while trying to meal prep for my family and eat a nutritious diet. It can be done, and I’m here to help you do it too! I believe that food should be used to fuel the body, and anyone who decides to put in the work will benefit. Let’s do this together!
