Taylor Larosee

My name is Taylor LaRosee. I am currently a junior at Iowa State University studying dietetics. I have worked at Hy-Vee as a dietitian's assistant & a diet clerk at Broadlawns Medical Center. I am currently interning at Nutrition in Motion, a private dietetics practice in West Des Moines. I recently obtained my Power Sculpt Yoga teacher certification through Powerlife Yoga and plan on teaching in Ames. Lastly, I run a blog that follows my own personal journey through health and wellness that I created in the hopes to inspire and motivate others, it is called Simply Healthy. I found my passion for health, wellness, and nutrition at a young age. I was a runner in high school and continued my love and passion for running through running half marathons in college. I love living an active lifestyle. I chose dietetics as my major because I love learning about how the body processes and uses the foods you consume as fuel, and how food can alter and change your performance. I would love to pursue a career in dietetics in order to help open up people's eyes to the things that I have learned about health and nutrition.
