Andrea earned her Bachelor of Science degree in community-medical dietetics from Viterbo University in La Crosse, Wisconsin. She further completed the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) Certificate of Training in Adult Weight Management (September 2004) and the CDR Certificate of Training in Intuitive Eating (May 2011).
Andrea has more than 20 years of experience as a registered dietitian. Prior to the grocery setting, she worked in health care, educating and counseling patients about weight management, heart health and digestive concerns as well as improving overall nutrition and eating habits. Andrea has been with Hy-Vee since 2013.
Andrea believes that food is good and is best when savored and enjoyed. She incorporates mindful eating techniques as well as cognitive behavioral concepts, rather than “do” and “don’t” lists. Andrea’s favorite part about being a dietitian is making food and nutrition simple, and working with customers to make choices that are best for them. She believes that helping others build confidence and trust in themselves through knowledge and understanding is the best way to achieve an appreciation for food and long-term success.
