About Me

Hello everyone! I am a graduate student at the Palmer School of Library Science at C.W. Post, and graduate of Plattsburgh State University with a B.S. in Food/Nutrition. My professional experience includes working as a Dietician for Sodexho-Marriot, where I served diverse populations in Acute/ Sub-Acute care through the Sodeho Foodservice Hospital Division. My expertise encompassed Oncology Nutrition, Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetic Mangament. I furthered my career in the Pharmaceutical and Legal field, bringing with me my unique experiences in patient care. I was particularly drawn to the information and research aspect of those areas, which led me to Library Science. Currently, I am working as a Graduate Assistant at the Brentwood Campus Library and love it. Please stop by if you have classes at the Brentwood Campus and happy to assist you. Good luck as dietetic students!
