As Director of the Didactic Program in Dietetics, I assist students with the pursuit of a career in dietetics. The program prepares students for application to supervised practice programs, ultimately allowing the student to obtain the credential of Registered Dietitian (RD). Areas of expertise include clinical nutrition and management as it applies to the field of dietetics and health care settings. Areas of interest include the nutrition care process, nutrition support, medical nutrition therapy and process improvement. I am also interested in health care management of resources (staff, insurance issues, regulation), particularly in the acute care setting.
