To celebrate National Nutrition Month in March, we are spotlighting some of the Registered Dieticians in our WIC program. Karlee loves working with our WIC clients because she can share resources and nutrition education that helps families in our community make healthier choices. Her goal is to brighten someone's day by making sure they have a good experience at their WIC appointment.

Karlee's passion for nutrition started at a young age because she struggled with disordered eating. Overcoming this hardship made her want to help people learn about the importance of nourishing their bodies for both their physical health and their mental wellbeing.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication to our WIC clients, Karlee!
