🎓 Graduate Student Spotlight 🎓 Lauren Fischer / Master of Science in Nutrition⁣

“Hi! I’m Lauren Fischer!⁣
⁣
I have grown so much over the past 6 years completing my undergrad in dietetics, Master’s in Clinical Nutrition and dietetic internship here at the University of Memphis. This journey has been unbelievably amazing and I am fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming a registered dietitian. There were so many great experiences I was able to be a part of at the UofM like being the graduate assistant for the _healthyteachingkitchen_, completing clinical rotations at the Memphis VA and receiving funding for my applied project for hydroponic gardens. I love the diverse nature that dietetics offers and I am excited to be able utilize all the skills I have obtained in my future career in Nashville.⁣
⁣
I have so many amazing people to thank who have helped me along this journey —⁣
⁣
✨ My husband, Lucas, and my mom for supporting, guiding and encouraging me every day for the past 6 years. They are truly my best friends and greatest supporters.⁣
✨Mrs. Mary Catherine Schallert MS, RDN, LDN, FAND for being an amazing educator, leader and friend.⁣
✨Mrs. Sara Foley MS, RDN, LDN, FAND for being a great mentor for the Healthy Teaching Kitchen, educator, listener, friend and for leading the 2020 dietetic interns well.⁣
