Sophia Welch

Nutrition Coach

Major and Expected Graduation Year:

I am a Nutrition and Food Science major with a concentration in Dietetics, expected to graduate in the spring of 2028! 

Reason for Studying Dietetics:

I chose to pursue dietetics because I have always had a passion for health and wellness and want to help others discover that same passion. As a lifelong athlete, I have seen firsthand the benefits of proper fueling and nutrition when it comes to maximizing not only athletic performance but also overall well-being! In my career, I hope to empower others to use nutrition and wellness to achieve their goals and optimize performance and health.  

Favorite Food:

My favorite food is a Greek yogurt bowl because I love how customizable and nourishing it can be! Whether topped with fruit, granola, cereal, nut butter, chocolate chips, or any other ingredients, Greek yogurt bowls are a fun way to fuel your body and incorporate a variety of nutrients!

Words to Live By: 

“If it doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you”
