Triathlon & Running
I have 17 years of running experience and almost 10 years of experience as a triathlete. Currently, my focus in on long-distance events, and recent races completed include a marathon, a 50-mile trail run and an Ironman-distance triathlon. Training for these events have been essential in my development of discipline and perseverance while giving me the courage to step outside my comfort zone in other areas of life.
Photography
Photography is an art and in my spare time, I enjoy playing around with my camera and catching creative images. I mainly photograph food and sports events, but always keep an eye open for a beautiful or unique scene worth capturing.
Mentorship
As a dietitian, I have had the opportunity to mentor and serve as a dietetic preceptor to a number of dietetics undergrads and dietetic interns. Mentoring others not only keeps me at the top of my game, it reminds me of why I love my chosen career path and allows me to share that passion with the future of the profession.
