She received her Masters in Public Health and Nutrition from the University of Washington. She also completed an internship to become a Registered Dietitian. She currently is enrolled in a one-year certificate program in Online Teaching. Amy says, “I love teaching online and helping students understand Nutrition but I’m also very interested in how to be a better online educator.  In my spare time I like to play with my boys, hike, read, and bake.”
