Dennie Byam, RD

I’m Dennie, known as The Lawyering Dietitian, one of the nation’s few professionals dually credentialed as both an Attorney and a Registered Dietitian. Additionally, I am a certified Group Fitness Instructor through AFAA, a Certified Personal Trainer, and a Certified Nutrition and Wellness Coach through NASM. I graduated as Valedictorian from Clark Atlanta University in 2010 and earned my Juris Doctor from Northwestern Law in 2014. I hold law licenses in Illinois, New York, and New Jersey. Driven by a passion for nutrition and wellness, I pursued a degree in Dietetics, Foods, and Nutrition, completing it in 2022. My dietetic internship focused on nutrition policy and advocacy, including Capitol Hill lobbying. My unique combination of legal and nutritional expertise, as well as my fitness certifications enables me to offer a comprehensive approach to health and wellness, emphasizing evidence-based dietary guidance, informed advocacy, and practical fitness strategies.
