Alyssa Quintanilla, RD
Background
Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a first generation Mexican-American Registered Dietitian. I am very passionate about foods and nutrition. I believe that foods should bring positive experiences with cooking, enjoying cultural or new foods and seeing the nutrition that foods bring to our bodies. Most of my experience is in women’s and children’s health, but I also have experience in sports nutrition and disordered eating recovery. My goal is to help you reach yours! I love working with individuals looking for nutrition guidance for themselves and working with families who have a little bit more going on and would like to build better habits for themselves and their children.
Outside of cooking and looking for new recipes to try, I also enjoy evening walks, dancing and gardening!
I am so excited that you are here to take this step forward in discussing your health and making changes to improve your quality of life. I look forward to getting to know you!

Approach
"I enjoy working with people in a more interactive way. My goal is to teach you about the basics of nutrition and build your skills so you eventually know how to make these choices for yourself. This involves discussing eating and lifestyle habits openly and asking questions about why or how we can make changes that will last a lifetime. I will always reassure people that I am not here to judge or criticize. My job is to help you accomplish your goals of living and healthy and happy life!"
