What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level role where I can apply my clinical and public health nutrition training—supporting nutritional assessments, diet planning, and data-driven nutrition programs—while growing my experience in healthcare or a nutrition-focused organization.

I’m a graduate of Doctor of Diet and Nutritional Sciences (DDNS) with a strong foundation in clinical and public health nutrition. Through my internship at the National Institute of Health (NIH) – Nutrition Division, I supported dietary assessments and nutritional data collection, and I helped with data analysis for national nutrition surveillance programs.

I’m motivated and detail-oriented, and I’ve also contributed to nutrition education and public awareness campaigns while observing the formulation of supplementary and therapeutic diets. Beyond internships, I’ve built skills through work on micronutrient deficiencies, food fortification strategies, and population-based nutrition interventions—along with research and analysis on food waste quantification using ANOVA, T-Test, and regression.
