HOD At-Large Delegate: Early Practitioner |
|
In my time as a Registered Dietitian, I have served on two boards, a council, and participated in many advocacy days. These experiences have given me practice in listening to a diverse group of opinions, hearing and understanding new perspectives, summarizing and communicating a group’s set of ideas, and advocating for our profession. Each group I have worked with has provided me with a different way of approaching each of these aspects, essential for the HOD delegate position, that I can draw from in order to be sure I am serving our members as a whole. |
