"I enjoy working with great teams nourishing infants and children. With the support of the PICU physicians and nurses, I continue learning and improving. I enjoy teaching and mentoring nutrition students, new pediatric RDs, and working within the medical and dietitian teams to improve patient care, decrease malnutrition and improve overall pediatric nutrition in our field."
