About Me
Hi all! My name is Abby deWitt. I am a Nutrition and Dietetics Major at Concordia College (2022). I plan to utilize my degree through a career as a Nutrition Professional, impacting community, families, and peers with evidence-based nutrition knowledge and dietetics resources.
I am accredited through the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) as a Dietetic Technician, Registered (DTR). I am also Servsafe, and Managefirst certified. Having six years of experience with Healthy Families America program has helped me develop communication and collaboration with resources and community partners throughout the state of North Dakota.
Internships at a family wellness facility and a long-term care facility provided me experience with nutrition assessments, nutritional counseling, and interaction between an interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals. Evaluating dietary intakes, reviewing medical records, navigating therapeutic diets, and providing nutrition interventions to individuals/patients/residents allowed me to strengthen skills in the areas of consistency and accuracy of care.
