Concordia College

My Background

 

When I was 16 years old I knew I wanted to become a registered dietitian (RD). Originally from Lino Lakes, MN, I attended Concordia College in Moorhead, MN for my BA in Food/Nutrition and Dietetics, and Exercise Science. During my sophomore year, I discovered my true passion in public policy during discussions about health care reform. After graduating Concordia, I completed my dietetic internship at the Yavapai County Community Health Services in Prescott, AZ. My goal was to move closer to Washington DC to eventually work in public policy nutrition. Totally blessed, my first job as a clinical dietitian moved me to Washington DC. Living in Silver Spring, MD, I pursued a Master's Public Policy with health policy concentration from the University of Maryland Baltimore County. I currently work in health policy and analyze legislation, reimbursement, and health insurance coverage in Maryland.
