Hi, I'm Cole Carter, a dietitian with a passion for helping individuals believe in themselves and achieve their health and fitness goals.
My expertise is rooted in a Master's degree in Exercise Physiology with a focus on sports nutrition from UW Madison, and a strong background in Nutrition and Dietetics. I've gained valuable experience working with the UW Badgers football team, Morton Plant BayCare hospital, and trained alongside world-class powerlifters.
I believe that exercise and nutrition are powerful tools for
My journey into fitness and nutrition began with my own health challenges. Before high school, faced with multiple surgeries and chronic conditions, I discovered the transformative power of combining nutrition and exercise. This approach allowed me to overcome significant obstacles and achieve a level of health and well-being I was told was not possible.
People often tell me “Wait until you are older,” but so far, every year, I feel younger, stronger, more mobile, with less chronic pain than I did at any of my pre-adult years.
If you're ready to unlock your potential and create a healthier, more confident you, let's connect.
My passion for nutrition began during my years as a tennis player, where I saw firsthand how fueling properly could transform not just my performance, but my energy, focus, and recovery. That experience laid the foundation for what would become a lifelong pursuit of empowering others through nutrition.
I hold a Master’s degree in Sports Nutrition along with 10+ years of clinical experience and I bring both academic knowledge and real-world experience to every client I work with. Whether you’re an athlete looking to optimize your performance, someone working toward a wellness goal, or simply trying to develop a healthier relationship with food, I provide practical, personalized guidance grounded in science.
At CoreAscent, I believe in rising to your potential — step by step, from the inside out. Nutrition isn’t about extremes; it’s about balance and consistency.
Outside of work, I still love to play tennis, hike, go to the gym and try new recipes!
Let’s work together to build a strong, sustainable foundation for your health and performance — one that supports not just where you are, but where you're going.
