About
I was born and raised in Port St. John, Florida. My childhood consisted of playing in the woods behind my house and riding my bike to Scoops. I attended Challenger 7 Elementary then Space Coast Jr./Sr. High when middle school was strictly in portables. Not too long afterwards, I returned to Challenger 7 as a speech therapist, working alongside many of my former teachers and getting to know many wonderful families in the area. After several years in public education my interests led me elsewhere. Today, I work as a dietitian for the Women, Infants, and Children program, where I help families make informed nutritional choices. In addition to my primary role, I also work with various non-profit organizations. I love working in community nutrition and my monthly article Food for Thought in Happenings is my way of bringing bite-sized and factual information to our community. So, whether you discover a new recipe to try or pick up a quick health tip, I hope you find inspiration to keep living a healthier life!
