Payton Dosan, Dietetics Student, Minnesota State University & MAND Student Board Member
Tell us about yourself: I am a junior Dietetics student at Minnesota State University, Mankato and am so excited to be learning about the field I have always been passionate about. I am a foodie at heart and love to learn about the ins and outs of food and nutrition, as well as enjoy the science behind what we eat, how we eat, and how to cook. I dream of becoming a RDN and obtaining my own private practice, focusing on integrative health and nutrition. Besides food and nutrition, I love to be outdoors, play sports, read, and spend time with others, especially my family.
Why are you excited to join the MAND Student Board? I am very passionate about health, wellness, nutrition, and the environment. I am excited to join MAND because I will have an opportunity to share my voice and discuss problems, solutions, information, and science with like-minded people who share my passions. I am eager to make an impact on people through education, policy, and community, and am excited to have a place to put that into action.
