I found out my Junior year at Binghamton that the profession “Registered Dietitian” existed and that was a “wow moment” for me. I knew what I wanted to do so I immediately signed up for as many science prerequisites that would fit into my schedule and I did not let myself get intimidated, even by organic chemistry! My diverse nutrition background includes clinical, teaching, research, wellness and private practice.

I started off as a clinical dietitian in a subacute care facility but quickly realized I did not find it rewarding. Soon after, I started as a retail dietitian working for a grocery store chain. I loved the exposure to the food industry and how much I learned about products, what was driving customers’ choices and then being able to positively influence food choices right at the point of purchase. That brought me to my current position at siggi’s dairy.

I think people would be surprised that RDs are more open minded then we are given credit for, especially as we have adapted a holistic approach in our practice. Science is always changing, so being able to interpret what is credible and not is a skill that we are trained to do

I started in addictions, as a clinical dietitian at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto. After my mat leave, I decided to switch gears and create my own job in an area I’ve become very passionate about, pediatrics. I’m still working in my private practice in this area. As someone who has always liked to try new things, I’ve recently started working casually as a clinical dietitian with the BC Cancer Agency, which has proved to be incredibly interesting and meaningful work.
