Meet Brontë
I’m Brontë Grooms, a Registered Dietitian and Functional Medicine Nutrition Specialist who helps women improve their metabolic health, overcome weight loss resistance, and better understand what their bodies need to thrive.
Many people are told to simply eat less and exercise more, yet continue to struggle with stubborn weight, fatigue, cravings, hormone changes, or digestive symptoms. My approach looks beyond calories alone to explore the factors that may be influencing metabolism, including blood sugar regulation, hormones, stress, digestion, inflammation, nutrient status, lifestyle, and genetics.
Through personalized, science-backed nutrition strategies, I help my patients move away from guesswork and build sustainable habits that support weight loss, energy, digestion, and long-term health.

A Personal Health Journey
My interest in functional nutrition began through my own experience with persistent acne and digestive discomfort. For years, I tried topical treatments, medications, and dietary changes, but the results were often temporary and disappointing.
It was not until I began looking at how digestion, inflammation, hormones, nutrition, and lifestyle worked together that I experienced meaningful improvements. This taught me that symptoms rarely exist in isolation and that lasting change often requires understanding the whole person.
That realization inspired me to create The Gene Hacker, where I help others better understand their bodies, uncover potential barriers to progress, and develop a personalized path toward improved metabolic health and overall well-being.
I became a Registered Dietitian in 2016 and earned my Functional Medicine Nutrition Specialist credential in 2025. I founded The Gene Hacker in 2020 and now work with patients nationally through health insurance, personalized health and wellness packages, and online group classes.
What The Gene Hacker Symbolizes
The Gene Hacker is more than just a catchy name. It represents our core belief that genetics don’t dictate our destiny. True wellness begins by understanding your unique genetic makeup and tapping into the hidden pathways it offers for optimal health. Rather than being defined by genetic predispositions, we ‘hack’ conventional approaches to personalize strategies for lasting change. This deeper look into your body’s unique blueprint helps us craft solutions that align with who you are at your core, empowering you to break free from the one-size-fits-all programs.
The Gene Hacker is more than just a business—it’s a movement dedicated to reclaiming well-being from within.

A Personal Note from Brontë
I believe in keeping things real and sustainable for my clients. Believe it or not, I worked in sales for a few years, which taught me the importance of time management. So, I understand how challenging it can be to prioritize health with a busy schedule. That’s why I focus on quick meal solutions and practical strategies. No extravagant meals here! My health approach is grounded in efficiency and simplicity.
Outside of work, I live in Eugene with my boyfriend and beloved dog, Sparkles, a lab-mix. We enjoy lifting at the Y, hiking peaks, rafting Montana’s rivers, cooking, and spending quality time with our family. These passions fuel my approach to health, helping me support clients in finding their balance.
