Why I chose my major

I chose my major because I have always been passionate about nutrition, mental health, and healthcare. Dietetics allows me to combine these interests while pursuing a career focused on improving the health and well-being of others. In the future, I would love to work with children with autism who experience feeding and eating challenges, while also supporting and educating their families.  

What I like most about FACS

I love the community I have found within FACS. I have created so many relationships with my peers and professors. I have found a place where I can surround myself with people who share my beliefs and values. The friendships I have formed within FACS are among the most meaningful I have found in college. I love how this is an environment where every student can feel seen and thrive. I can confidently say that FACS is family. FACS is constantly serving me, molding me into a more confident and competent student.
