Making it happen - one blog post at a time...

Wow, am I actually starting my blog that I have been talking about since January 2009!!??? I guess so.

First and foremost, I am blogging to further challenge ME to educate myself on the world of food and nutrition as I continue on my adventure to become a Registered Dietitian. Secondly, maybe someone out there in the vast black hole of the "world wide web" actually listens to what I have to say. Only time will tell.

This blog I hope will strike a unique balence between healthy food and nutrition information as well as a way to have a very fulfilling relationship with food. Because, Lord knows, I love a good meal.

How did I come to be at this place in life?
- Rutgers University Graduate who majored in Communications after a terrible train wreck of an experience trying to be a food and nutrition major. I chalked it up to being in a VERY large school and maybe immature and not focused enough.

- Currently a public relationships professional specializing in health and consumer products for an agency in NYC, while balencing the trials and tribulations of being a student at College of St. Elizabeth in NJ. In a nutshell, I am "student Lisa" and "career Lisa" multiple times in one day!

Once I started working in public relations, specifically in the healthy and wellness space, with exposure to tons of RDs across the U.S. who we leverage on a regular basis for our clients, did I realize - I COULD BE THEM!!!

One step, test, commute and day at a time. Hopefully it will all be worth it!
