Why choose study of dietetics: I wanted to do something in healthcare, growing up watched my grandfather struggle with controlling his Diabetes and felt nutrition and lifestyle choices could have a positive impact. Considered pharmacy or veterinary school.
Operations has always been my favorite track in Dietetics which lead me to my current career in Marketing.
Most enjoyable as a nutrition professional: Working with customers to improve the dining experience they offer in their communities/facilities. Creating great eye appeal, service and flavor profiles for everyone regardless of texture requirements.
Favorite Food: Grilled Salmon
