Joy Wang

Hello! My name is Joy Wang. I am a bay area native from San Jose, California who is enthusiastically passionate about food, nutrition, and fitness.

 

I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with my Bachelor's degree in Nutritional Science, Dietetics. I completed my dietetic internship through the Individualized Supervised Practice Pathway (ISPP) at California State University, San Bernardino. Soon after, I passed the national exam to become a credentialed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist.

 

My love for food and cooking began in the kitchen since I was very young. My mother would make homemade meals from scratch as I poked and prodded after her in the kitchen. Simultaneously, she would tell explain how different foods had the ability to nourish and energize the body in various ways. Little did I know, my mother planted the seeds that sparked my interest in how food and nutrition affect the human body.

 

Now, I am a self-proclaimed foodie and I love all aspects of food. I appreciate the intricacies and precise, scientific processes that are involved in relating nutrition with the human body. I also embrace all the glory, deliciousness, and simple joys of eating food.

 

With an appetite for both food and knowledge, I want to connect with people through food, nutrition, and health. I hope to help people by being a part of their journey towards living a healthy lifestyle. My goal as a dietitian is to empower people to build healthy habits, in order to live a balanced, sustainable lifestyle.
