MY STORY: I grew up in south Boston (Marshfield) Massachusetts until I was 18 and went on to go to Virigina Tech University (Blacksburg, VA) - Go Hokies! I studied for 5 years to get my accreditation to become a Dietitian. In that time, I also worked as a Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor, served as the President of the Student Dietetics + Nutrition Club, was a Sorority member of Alpha Phi, and also served many other jobs around town (nutrition counseling, bartending, teaching yoga, working at the farmers market). Between semesters of school, I would either work various jobs in the summer but also did a study abroad one summer in Italy and France related to nutrition abroad, I worked at a medical facility in Uganda Africa, and I also went to Seattle to complete my 200 Hour Yoga Cert. In 2013, after graduating with a major in Dietetics as well as Exercise and Health Promotion, I moved to Chicago to do my 9 month internship at Ingalls Memorial Hospital. After completing my internship, I passed my boards and became a Registered Dietitian in 2014! From there, I went on to work with Joe Cross, film producer, wellness celebrity and most well-known for his first film, Fat Sick and Nearly Dead. I worked as Joe's personal nutritionist and Executive Assistant traveling around the USA and around the world internationally for his 2nd film tour as well as his 2nd book tour - it was amazing and I am so grateful for that year! I still work with Joe's company, Reboot With Joe in doing their Guided Reboots! In 2015, I met a charmer, Dan Niehaus, skiing up in Vermont... 6 months later he got a job in Cincinnati, OH and so I decided to stop working for Joe and moved to Cincinnati with Dan. Prior to moving to Cincinnati in the 1 month between leaving working with Joe, I traveled to India for a 5-week yoga program receiving an additional 200 hour training in Vinyasa and Hatha. Now, here in Cincinnati, Dan proposed and we will be getting married in September 2017. Since moving to Cincinnati, I have started my private practice, Kristen DeAngelis Wellness. I also work at TriHealth kenwood womens center - seeing patients at an outpatient center and TriHealth Pavilion teaching weight management classes and cooking workshops. In Cincinnati, I also teach yoga at The Yoga Bar, I am the dietitian at Mission 5 Fitness and I work with Scripps digital company called SimpeMeals in doing some contract work in developing meal plans. I also still work with Reboot With Joe guiding Guided Reboots as well as work for Shea Training, a student-athlete sports training facility in Boston where I do their nutrition programming and social media. Overall, I love love love what I do and I am always aiming to help support those that are looking for ways to improve their lives whether it be improved nutrition, increased self-awareness, or just feeling better overall through a holistic approach. I hope to spread the word of good nutrition and the other important facets that incorporate into a healthy mind, body and spirit.
