Conversations With Anne Elizabeth

Conversation 36: The Story, Journey and Passion of Rachel Wall, RD, LD “By working in Extension, I get to have feelers within a lot of areas of nutrition. One of the other things I love about my job is the team I get to work with. I feel we are very supportive of each other. There are 12 Nutrition and Wellness Specialist across the state that do the nutrition and wellness programming. I think the great part is, even though I might not see them everyday, we can divide and conquer. Extension gives you the opportunity to explore your personal interests. ” - Rachel Wall RD, LD My conversation today is with Registered Dietitian Rachel Wall. Rachel and I had a great conversation today. Rachel radiates passion for being a Registered Dietitian and is flourishing as a Nutrition and Wellness Specialist for the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. I didn’t not get a lot of experience with Extension when I was in my internship and I think it is very important for many of us to look more into this career opportun
