I believe that every individual has a fundamental human right to access comprehensive and equitable healthcare. We all share a common origin and inherent dignity, which entitles us to the care and support necessary for our well-being, regardless of our background or circumstances.
My name is Paulina, and I was raised in Agua Prieta/Douglas, Arizona. I have attended school both in the U.S. and in Mexico, and I come from a family deeply rooted in Mexican culture. My family’s commitment to health is evident, as my two brothers and one sister are also health professionals. This shared dedication to wellness has shaped my career path and personal values.
I am married to my wonderful husband, Gio, and we share our home with two playful pugs who brighten our lives. Family is incredibly important to me, and I hold strong family values that guide my decisions and actions. In my personal life, I am passionate about exercise, and it remains one of my main hobbies. My husband and I love planning fitness-focused activities for our community, combining our love for wellness and connection.
As a registered dietitian, I have had the privilege of working in various fields, including the medical, research, and community sectors. My expertise lies in disease prevention, particularly in metabolic and chronic diseases through nutrition. My dream has always been to help as many people as possible improve their lifestyle through the power of nutrition. I am dedicated to helping individuals make lasting changes to their health and well-being. My long-term goals include continually growing as a registered dietitian, staying up-to-date with the latest advancements in the field, and excelling in my career. Additionally, one of my dreams is to travel the world and experience diverse cultures, while continuing to combine my passion for health, wellness, and nutrition in both my professional and personal life.
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND:
I am a registered dietitian with a Professional Science Master’s degree from the University of Arizona. I have gained extensive experience in the research field, contributing to several published papers and book chapters. My expertise spans both clinical and research applications of nutrition.
