Joann Martinez

I enjoy writing. I value nutrition. And I love me a good meal. It wasn’t too long ago when I made a life-changing decision – one I never thought I’d make – to set course for a second round through college. My goal: to become a Registered Dietitian. My first degree is a B.A. in Mass Communication, with which I have earned a wonderfully cozy job as a copy writer for a local digital marketing agency. At first glance, these two fields have nothing in common, but my way to bridge them is with nutrition communication and preventative healthcare. I want to educate and encourage others, particularly in the Hispanic community, to appreciate and nourish their bodies with the end goal of a more healthy lifestyle. My newfound interest for food nutrition encouraged me to seek avenues that allow me to express my passion. While work and school keep me busy learning and earning, as a Foodie, I can explore and further develop my passions with the people of my community. This is an exciting venture that I’m excited to share with y’all!
