Teaching Philosophy:

My class is designed to help students improve their health by exploring their own nutritional intake using a computer diet analysis program and to develop a personal diet improvement plan.

When I became a Nutritionist:

When I took my first nutrition class in college, I was hooked! I changed my major to nutrition so that I could become a registered Dietitian. I continue to practice as a dietitian. I could become a Registered Dietitian. I continue to practice as a dietitian so that I can help patients improve their health through diet changes.

Recommendations for student success in my courses:

Prepare for class by reading the assigned chapters in our textbook. Be prepared to participate in group discussions of case studies that will bring the nutrition facts into real-life situations.
