"I am passionate about sports nutrition and finding an approach that works for each athlete individually considering their goals, preferences and lifestyles. I believe that nutrition shouldn’t be complicated or restrictive, and the mental aspect of enjoying food and eating with others is really important to me. When I graduate, I hope to work as a sports dietitian for college, and then ultimately professional athletes "
