About
I’m SaVanna, the brains and lightning-fast typing fingers behind this operation. I’m a registered dietitian, and I’ve been freelance writing full-time since 2020.
My lifelong struggle with obesity led me to pursue a career in dietetics. I wanted to deeply understand nutrition to solve my own health issues, and over time this desire developed into a drive to help others take charge of their own health, too.
These days, I’m extremely fortunate that my work combines three of my great passions in life: nutrition, writing, and working in loungewear.
A few more facts about me:
- I’m a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, and I’m licensed to practice in the state of Arkansas.
- I received my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics from Louisiana Tech University in 2012.
- I received my Master of Science in Human Nutrition (emphasis in clinical practice) from The University of Southern Mississippi in 2014.
- Before becoming a full-time writer, I worked as a research dietitian at Southern Miss and a WIC Nutritionist for the Mississippi Department of Health providing nutrition counseling for low-income mothers and their young children. I was also a renal dietitian for Fresenius Kidney Care, working with dialysis patients with complex nutrition needs.
I live in Little Rock, Arkansas with my husband and three kids.
