She graduated in 2013 with a degree in human nutrition and foods and in 2015 with a master’s degree in nutrition and food science.

She also plans to pursue her goal of be­coming a Registered Dietitian.

“Food has always interested me, but I never really thought it would be a part of my future career until I registered for a Human Nutrition and Foods 171 course,” she said.

“After the first couple of classes I was hooked. I am fascinated with the many ways food can affect our bodies.”
