Greetings! My name is Jess and I’m the girl behind Vitamin Valentine. I started Vitamin Valentine in 2013 as a way to document my experience as a student while pursuing a second bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in nutrition (B.S/M.S.). My first bachelor’s degree is in psychology, but I always knew I wanted to do something with nutrition. I hope to combine my background in social science with helping people develop healthier eating habits.
In the Spring of 2017, I graduated with my nutrition degrees, and I was accepted into a competitive, rigorous Dietetic Internship (DI) program, in order to become a Registered Dietitian. The DI program started this September (2017), and I’m so excited to share what I learn along the way!
Outside of the Dietetic Internship, you can find me on my yoga mat (I’m a certified yoga instructor). I’m also a farmers market-enthusiast, nature-lover, and runner, so sometimes you’ll find posts about these topics, in addition to nutrition posts/recipes.
I love hearing from my readers, so if there’s a topic you want to see covered or you’d like to contact me, feel free to leave a comment. Want more Vitamin Valentine food, nutrition, and wellness updates? Follow me on instagram @vitaminvalentine and like the Vitamin Valentine facebook page to stay connected.
Happy reading and eating 🙂

Hi Jess, thanks for visiting https://vegiglow.com/ and liking my post. I too studied nutritional science, but sadly, didn’t pursue a degree in nutrition, although my passion is food and it’s wonderful byproduct of health & wellness. Best of luck to you in your studies.
