About Me

Yakira's interest in nutrition started in high school when she took a nutrition elective in 12th grade. From there, she realized she had always appreciated balance and moderation in diet and lifestyle. She wants to ensure she enjoys life while staying healthy and has a passion for sharing her approach with others.

After high school, Yakira studied abroad for a year and went on to earn a bachelor's degree in nutrition, complete a dietetic internship through NYU, completing rotations at Memorial Sloan Kettering, Alaris Health, and Savor Health. She is almost finished with her Master's degree in clinical nutrition from NYU, but she plans to continue learning about everything nutrition, but specifically prenatal nutrition, weight management, and intuitive eating.
