MY MISSION AND VISION

I am a senior year nutrition student at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. My mission is to earn a degree in Nutrition Sciences and get into Dietetic Internship. After I become a licensed Registered Dietitian, I aspire to open up my own private practice to help people to reach their wellness goals.

My vision is to help and transform people’s lives in a positive way. I’m excited to be a part of a shift in our healthcare system that recognizes the role of nutrition and other lifestyle changes in treating and preventing physiological and mental illnesses. And I hope to lead as many people as I can on the path of happier and more fulfilled life.

Are there other ways to deal with mental illnesses?

Is there a link between mental health and our diet?
