Amy Gorin, MS, RDN

I do a little bit of everything. My private practice focuses in weight management, vegetarian and vegan eating, and general wellness. A lot of my time goes toward writing nutrition- and health-focused articles for magazines and web sites. I develop recipes for some of these publications, as well as for corporations. Additionally, I consult with food companies and corporations to create effective media messaging.

Abby Langer, RD

I’m sort of a content machine. Typically, on any given day, I’m writing content, developing a recipe, taking photographs of my food, and seeing clients. I also do non-nutrition related stuff like pick-up my kids from school and go running. It’s all about balance, yo!

My first job after becoming a registered dietitian was with a non-profit organization that organized fitness and educational events for youth and adults living with diabetes. From there, I began working in eating disorders at a residential treatment center. Now I work in a variety of different roles, but all within eating disorders. I so whole-heartedly believe in the philosophy and approach of this work, I can’t imagine doing anything else.

Heather Deranja, RDN, LD, MA

I started as a registered dietitian working at a corporate health club as a Nutrition Program Coordinator. I have also worked in clinical settings such as long-term care over the years, but now I own and operate my own practice. Since becoming a RDN, I've gotten a master's degree in Multidisciplinary Health Communications specializing in Behavioral Theory, and most recently completed my NASM personal training certification to bring another aspect of knowledge to my practice.

Cara Harbstreet, RD, MS, LD

I worked a number of jobs throughout college, some food related and some less so. I even worked at a brewery for a short time before returning to school for my Master’s program! During my last semester an opportunity opened, and although I knew things would be hectic, I pounced on the chance to land my dream job. It was a perfect fit and I’ve been there ever since!
