Laura Crane and Miki Eberhardt


Often mistaken for sisters, Miki Eberhardt and Laura Crane, co-founders of Neighborhood Nutrition, share an interesting history. In their college days at Brigham Young University, Miki and Laura could often be found studying food chemistry concepts together while pursuing degrees in dietetics and nutrition. After completing their sophomore years, Miki took two years off to travel to Japan as a volunteer for her church. Laura continued on, completed her degree, and relocated with her husband to Southern California. She completed a dietetic internship and started working as a clinical dietitian at Olive View-UCLA Medical Center.

During this time, Miki returned from Japan, finished her degree in dietetics, and was considering a move to Southern California to complete an internship. She was surveying potential internship sites in the area, and by coincidence Olive View was on her list. Imagine her surprise when her Olive View tour guide was Laura, her friend from college. Miki decided to complete her internship at Olive View, and afterwards took a position there as a clinical dietitian. During their time at the hospital, Miki taught outpatient diabetes classes, provided personal training at the employee fitness center, and worked with Laura to create a successful employee weight loss program. Laura worked primarily providing outpatient nutrition counseling to diabetic children, pregnant women, and overweight children and adults.

Through working together at the hospital, Miki and Laura also found they had a similar interest in private practice and wanted to pursue this further by starting their own business. Today, Neighborhood Nutrition is helping clients achieve their health-related goals one step at a time.

Miki is also an NSCA certified personal trainer. When not talking nutrition or fitness, Miki enjoys biking with her husband and spending time outdoors. Laura enjoys spending time with her family, working out at the gym, and trying her hand at new recipes.

Miki and Laura are passionate about health and fitness and are dedicated to helping people bring balanced eating and healthy living... home.
