Hi, my name is Jessie Valentine and I’m a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and certified yoga instructor. In addition to these things, I also have a background in psychology, and I’m so happy to be able to use my skills and knowledge to help you improve your health, feel energized, and manage your weight through plant-based nutrition.
My approach to food and wellness was formed as a result of my personal experiences, education, and through learning from others. I became a vegan at age 15, but I often struggled with fueling my body correctly. The more I learned about nutrition, the better I felt, and I hope to help you feel your best through plant-based eating.
I take an integrative approach to wellness and believe that in order to help you, I need to first get to know you! To learn how I do this, see my “work with me” page by clicking here or by clicking on the “work with me” tab above.
My professional background includes a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Hofstra University, a dual bachelor’s degree/master’s degree in nutrition from Long Island University-Post, completion of an accredited dietetic internship through Long Island University, and completion of a 200-hour yoga teacher training through Emerge Yoga & Wellness.

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.
