Hannaford Supermarket

Nutrition is not just a career for me, it’s my passion. I feel very fortunate that from a young age I knew I wanted to be a Registered Dietitian and I love the work I get to do with Hannaford Supermarkets. As someone who struggled with childhood obesity for most of my youth, I spent years teaching myself about the power of healthy eating. I knew I wanted a career where I could help teach others what I had learned so they could help better themselves too and that’s exactly what I get to do. Nothing brings me greater joy than seeing someone’s eyes light up because something I taught them made sense. Sharing the power of good food and nutrition is the greatest feeling in the world and I am honored to be a dietitian.
