Bio

Cheetos. Coke. Hot dogs. Social gatherings in America would not seem complete without these staple items. Processed food has become engrained in social settings--from parties, to funerals, to everyday events. From the day we are born to the day we die, the food we eat plays an integral role in our health, yet food education often seems pushed to the side. As time goes on, Americans get more unhealthy, and the common denominator is ultra-processed foods and the lack of awareness of consumers. I believe food impacts health for better or worse and I hope to teach people about the food they eat so they can make educated decisions regarding how to care for their health. I am passionate about searching for the truth and I hope to lead others towards health as I pursue nutrition and teach others the importance of the food we eat. I plan on attaining my bachelors (eventually masters degree) in dietetics to one day become a registered dietitian. I hope to teach people about nutrition by improving health literacy and by teaching ways to actively live a healthier life. In my free time you can find me experimenting in the kitchen, volunteering, hanging with my family and friends, or spending time outside! College is wildly expensive, and any scholarship amount is a huge blessing! I am determined to fund my college education without picking up any debt, which means I will continue working hard, saving up, and applying for scholarships. Thank you!
