About Me

My name is Amanda Knoll. I am a first year student at The Ohio State University pursuing a Bachelor Degree in Medical Dietetics. I plan on becoming a registered dietitian at the end of my four years here and work in a clinical setting.

Over my four years in High School, I volunteered each summer to help those in need in Appalachia. To me, helping others is a vital aspect in my future profession. As a dietitian, assisting patients’ journey to a clean bill of health through nutrition is my way of bettering their lives.

I am determined, driven, open to new experiences, and most importantly, dedicated to my work. Over the next four years, I will strive to get all I can out of this wonderful university and ensure I am ready for and capable of the nutrition world.10527870_10203742982809305_3781818372555370363_n
