About me

I decided to be a nutritionist because of my desire to provide a service. I was sure that by studying nutrition I could help a lot of people, and I was right! Throughout my career, I have been able to see the improvement of children, men, and women by working with them and helping them make healthier nutritional and lifestyle choices.
