I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Food and Nutrition at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP). The school has nothing to do with the state of Indiana, but rather our town is called “Indiana” and our county is shaped like the state of Indiana.

Denine Marie Stracker, MPH, RDN

I’m a second-career dietitian having worked in event planning for a decade after undergrad. After my study abroad awakening during my junior year of college, it was another 10 years before I could get back to school to pursue my dietetic work at New York University, and complete my internship at New York Presbyterian-Weill Cornell Medical Center. In 2013, I completed a Masters in Public Health from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst.

When others ask what I do for work I usually start off with saying that I have the best job ever… working with athletes and coaches to help them reach their health and performance goals is very fun! I try to make the learning environment very practical and hands on- if we can cook and prep foods we will, if we can get into the grocery store then we go. I like to meet with athletes in their training environment to get a clear picture of the demands of their sport.

Jordan Hostetler RD, LDN

I work as a clinical dietitian in a long term care facility. I initially started working with the elderly as I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the older population as they are just as vulnerable as children; all they truly want is someone to talk to and someone to listen.

That’s the best part of consulting – there are no typical days! Having said that, most days you’ll find me at my desk, writing for at least a couple of hours. Probably about once I week I move my office to the kitchen for recipe development and food photos – those are definitely some of my favourite days!
