Letter Of Reflection Nfs 2000

My education at Madonna University is preparing me in many ways to be successful in the workforce. Several of the subjects that I have learned about are nutrition in food and the body, food preparation and regulation, importance of environment stability, and the politics and policy involved in dietetics. Each topic covered holds its own importance for healthy lifestyles. Two of my favorite subjects are general nutrition and environment stability. The thought of using the knowledge of nutrition to help somebody reach their goal or obtain a better quality of life excites me. Environmental stability intrigues me as well because all of our food comes from this earth and how we produce and cultivate it affects everything around us. In addition to my education in dietetics, I have also been taking classes in business administration. Some of the subjects that interest me the most are marketing and behavioral organization. These two subjects increase my understanding in the business aspect of dietetics and how to interact with fellow team members more effectively. This knowledge will help me potentially to create my own business in the health field and reach a larger range of people. The hands-on experiences I have received such as dairy farm tours, educating elementary children on healthy snacks, and local farmers’ markets have been irreplaceable. It is completely different to learn about subjects in the school setting and actually seeing these practices in action. These opportunities have broadened my scope of what the traditional clinical dietitian can do with their education. This inspires me to follow where the world takes me in the workforce. Overall, the learning experiences I have received just solidify my interest in dietetics and spark my curiosity. Reflecting on my experiences in my education, I acknowledge that there is still much to learn. The best way to continue my education is to embrace all there is to offer and always ask questions because it is better to be led by curiosity than the fear of failure. I will take all the opportunities that present themselves to broaden my knowledge and network as much as possible. With all in mind, I am excited for what experiences that the future holds.
