Rutgers University
Hello! My name is Alessandra Sommer, I am a recent graduate from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. In May, 2023 I achieved a bachelors degree in Nutritional Science – Dietetics Option. Attending Rutgers University has brought about many opportunites including my current accomplishments of being involved in research, co-authoring two published papers, being awarded with the ASN UDR fellowship, working as a learning assistant, and attending a national conference for climate change advocay. In the future, I look forward to completing an MSPH/DI program at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, obtaining my registered dietitian (RDN) credential and work as an entry-level dietitian in the public health sector. I also greatly look forward to continuing my work on improving nutrition and physical literacy among adolescents.
