About
Diana collaborated with primary healthcare providers in a pilot program to assist patients in adjusting their insulin levels to meet their blood sugar goals. On average, patients lowered their hemoglobin A1c levels by over 2% through working with Diana. This collaboration was the first of its kind in the organization.
I enjoy helping other people improve their quality of life, both physically and mentally. Nutrition plays a big role in both physical and mental health, and I find joy in helping people reach their goals and notice a positive difference in how they feel. Nutrition has played a big role in my life, and I enjoy sharing that knowledge and experience with others.
Experience
Diana has worked as a dietitian in an inpatient hospital setting, where she assessed patients’ nutritional needs, recommended nutrition support, and offered nutrition education. She also worked in a primary care clinic providing nutrition education for people of all ages, as well as offering nutrition education for high-risk women and children in the WIC program.
Education
Diana graduated with honors from the University of Idaho with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics.
