With a well-rounded background in both food service and clinical nutrition. Hayley has cultivated a diverse career that bridges nutrition's practical and therapeutic aspects. She initiated her professional journey through hands-on roles in kitchens, farms, and food manufacturing plants, which provided her with a solid foundation in food systems and production. She earned her bachelor's degree in Nutrition and Dietetics with a minor in Food Science from Framingham State University, where she also completed her dietetic internship.

Hayley began her RD journey as a clinical dietitian at MetroWest Medical Centers and Spaulding Nursing and Therapy Center. She provided medical nutrition therapy for patients with a wide range of medical and behavioral conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, oncology, digestive disorders, and disordered eating.

In her transition to campus, Hayley worked for three universities in the Worcester community, creating and managing nutrition programs tailored to students' needs. Her empathetic approach and practical communication skills helped students make informed dietary choices and improved their overall well-being. In her spare time, Hayley enjoys training for marathons, trying new restaurants, and drinking Americanos.
