Get to Know Me
Hello! My name is Banafsheh, but everyone calls me Bani. I am a dedicated Registered Dietitian with a passion for promoting health and wellness. I hold a Master of Science in Nutrition Science as well as a Master of Science in Agriculture Horticulture, which has given me a well-rounded perspective on the connection between food, nutrition, and health.
My Approach and Expectations
With six years of experience working as a Registered Dietitian in both clinical and community settings, I have honed my skills in providing personalized nutrition plans that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I am also proud to have completed a certificate program in plant-based nutrition from eCornell University, which has further enriched my knowledge and expertise in this area.
When working with clients, my expectations are simple: I believe in a collaborative approach where we work together to achieve your health goals. My role is to guide, support, and empower you with the knowledge and tools you need to make informed decisions about your nutrition and well-being.
A Bit About Me
Outside of my professional life, I am an avid painter and enjoy immersing myself in the world of art. I also love reading books, brisk walking, swimming, and spending quality time with my family. These personal interests allow me to maintain a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle, which I strive to help my clients achieve as well.
My Drive and Passion
My drive comes from a deep-seated passion for helping others achieve their best health. I am fluent in both English and Farsi, which allows me to connect with a diverse range of clients and provide culturally sensitive care. My mission is to inspire and motivate you to take charge of your health and to support you every step of the way on your journey to wellness.
