My name is Jazmin, and I am a Registered Dietitian. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Human Nutrition and Dietetics from the University of Massachusetts. I completed my internship with the Georgia Department of Public Health, emphasizing Community Nutrition. I also earned my Masters of Public Health with a focus on Human Nutrition.

Before pursuing nutrition, I spent over 10 years working in mental health as a counselor. My interest in nutrition was sparked by my own challenges with weight gain and dieting. For a long time, I viewed my struggles as failures, which brought a lot of shame, especially as a dietitian. Throughout my journey, I found that none of my healthcare providers truly understood my situation, so I aim to offer support from someone who has experienced similar challenges. My personal and professional background allows me to relate to my clients from the perspective of someone who has faced similar trials. I believe that both my failures and successes can inspire and encourage others while holding me accountable.

Once I recognized this, I created POP Wellness. Embracing the idea of “Progress over Perfection,” I focus on gradual improvement rather than perfection. This journey is about taking it one day—and sometimes one hour—at a time. I’m here to walk alongside you, sharing my experiences and expertise, and offering support from someone who truly understands.
