I am Tina Dobrowski, MS, RD, CSG. I have been interested in the effect of what we eat and how we feel, since I was a young athlete in high school. While studying abroad in Italy, I became aware of the relationship between food and culture. Discovering the center of place and community food can bring to an individual and the population sparked my passion for nutrition sciences. Having grown up in western Washington, I was eager to see other parts of the country and moved to Las Vegas for my undergraduate education.
I graduated from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas with a bachelor's of science in Comprehensive Nutrition in 2009. I then worked as a Registered Diet Technician and Nursing Assistant in hospitals and long term care facilities around western Washington for 10 years. During that time I found my place working with the over 65 population, maintaining their health while remaining in their homes. I also had the pleasure to work with some inspirational dietitians and serivxe members at Madigan Army Medical center in Tacoma, WA. I was then fortunate to have the opportunity to further pursue my dietetic interest by attending the Master of Science, Coordinated program in dietetics and exercise physiology at Washington State Univeristy in Spokane. During my time at WSU, I was able to obtain a certification in exercise physiology in addition the meeting criteria to sit for the Registered Dietitian exam. I passed the exam and earned the RD credential in June 2021.
Since 2021 I have worked primarily with adults in the hospital and older adults in long term care facilities, including the only long term ventilator unit in easterm Washington. I've utilized my experienced in long term care to receive additional credentialing with a Board Certified Specialty in Gerentological nutrition.
