Dietitian Award—Exciting News!

I wasn’t sure if I wanted to share this dietitian news on my blog because it seemed a bit like a “humble brag;” but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t excited, so here we go:

I was nominated and awarded South Dakota’s Recognized Young Dietitian of the Year for 2019!!

How crazy is that?!!!

I’m truly so thankful for the nominations that I received from fellow dietitians. Dietetics makes up a HUGE chunk of my life so it felt really nice to receive some positive feedback in this form.

In the spirit of being extra excited about my profession, I thought I would share a few pictures/memories from my career thus far. 🙂

social media friends
Having a presence on social media has afforded me so many opportunities, such as becoming friends with Cara Harbstreet from Kansas City

Thank you so much to anyone who put up with me complaining about my chemistry classes in college and supported me in my journey to become a dietitian. I couldn’t have made it this far in my career without so many lovely role model dietitians, supportive friends, and loving family. Thanks a million! 🙂
