Alana Olson, RD
Background
For as long as I can remember, my greatest passion in life has been food- how it’s produced and prepared, how it affects our bodies, and how what we eat impacts the planet. My combined interests in cooking and health inspired me to pursue a degree in Clinical Nutrition at the University of California, Davis. Upon my graduation, I completed my dietetic internship in Cape Cod, Massachusetts before returning to California. Since becoming a dietitian, I have worked with individuals with eating disorders and in non-profit settings providing nutrition resources and education to underserved communities. In my free time, I love to run, cook (especially making homemade hummus and sourdough bread!), hike, and practice yoga. As your dietitian, I will be there to listen and support you through your journey towards finding joy, peace and healing through food. After I get to know you and your individual needs and challenges, we will work together to set and achieve realistic goals that support your overall health and wellbeing.

My goal as a dietitian is to help all of my clients develop sustainable eating practices that support their long-term health while taking their unique lifestyle, preferences, and food resources into account."
