Pancakes are her favorite food; she even had a party with a pancake bar with all the toppings you could dream of for her birthday party last year. She decided that she&#8217;d love to make that a new tradition. Isn&#8217;t that a great idea? If she could have any super power she&#8217;d choose not needing sleep, &#8220;so much more time to get things done!&#8221; Like, perhaps, running? This summer Nicole ran her first half marathon.<\/p>\n<p>Nicole&#8217;s main responsibility with UAND is to help keep things organized and readily available for board members, and to help with elections when they come around. She says that her &#8220;hopes for this year are to assist the Board\u2019s efforts of helping dietitians throughout the state reach their full potential as food and nutrition leaders, and to meet more awesome dietitians.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She currently works as a Dietetic Internship Coordinator at Utah State University-Salt Lake. When asked what her favorite job, or dream job is she said, &#8220;at one time my dream job was to be the dietitian for Riverdance or Lord of the Dance and tour with them. \u00a0Until then, I have really enjoyed giving presentations to community, school, and student groups on various nutrition topics, as well as writing. It\u2019s something I\u2019ve been able to do in every job I\u2019ve had.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Her advice to young dietitians is &#8220;to not be afraid of things you don\u2019t know much about. As you find out what areas of the dietetics profession you enjoy, and what your own strengths are, you\u2019ll have opportunities to try new things. Although it can be intimidating if those are in areas you\u2019re not as familiar with, as you challenge yourself to figure them out and to give them a try, weaknesses can become strengths.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nicole Vance | UAND Secretary Nicole is a Utahan born and bred and loves living in Utah.
