Nadaa Taiyab, BA, BS, MA, NDA

Founder & Certified Nutrition Education Trainer

Healthy living is Nadaa’s passion and professional mission. Working 70+ hours a week as the COO/CFO of Omedix, a medical software startup, her busy schedule took a heavy toll on her health and that of her husband. As their waistlines grew and energy levels dwindled, they began making gradual changes to their daily routine including a cleaner diet, regular exercise, and meditation. They effortlessly lost weight and regained the vitality and health they had not felt since their early twenties.

The impact of healthy living and good nutrition on their lives was so profound it inspired her to make a complete career change from finance and business to health and nutrition. She started Tiny Steps to help others realize that health is compatible with a busy professional life.

Nadaa has served as a nutritionist for the Mollen Clinic, where she counseled patients suffering from heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. Her professional background includes roles with Goldman Sachs, the World Bank, the Medicine Shoppe, and Omedix. She was also a Fellow at the Acumen Fund, a social venture capital fund.

She graduated summa cum laude with a BA from the University of Pennsylvania and has an MA from The Fletcher School at Tufts University in International Affairs. She received a BS in Nutrition and Dietetics from Arizona State University and is a certified Nutrition Education Trainer through Dr Joel Fuhrman’s Nutrition Education Training Institute.
