Having a great time at @nutritionorg, and got to present our work at @USDA_ARS on the Food Patterns Equivalents Database. Lots of great science happening across the landscape of nutrition! Glad to connect with colleagues in-person in Boston again.

In between a busy season of international nutrition conferences this summer, we found time to get married! Cheers to forever with my person.

However, I’m so excited to share that starting next week I no longer have to introduce myself as a “nutritionist by training.” I can’t wait to put my PhD to good use at @USDA_ARS as a Nutritionist with the Food Surveys Research Group!

[Anna West Waller, PhD @WallerAnna]

Today was my last day with @USDA Agricultural Marketing Service. AMS was a wonderful agency to start my public service career and I’m grateful for the wonderful mentors and friends I’ve gained while working there. I’ve learned so much!

[U.S. FDA Human Foods Program @FDAfood]

See what #GMOs make the journey from farm to table. And learn more about how they are a big part of our food supply. https://t.co/5PZrd5OJEf #FeedYourMind

[Anna West Waller, PhD @WallerAnna]

It was a pleasure to collaborate with @US_FDA and @eatright on this continuing education program for registered dietitians about #GMOs. Check out the informative video below! https://t.co/OvAtNU3yT4

Looking forward to meeting colleagues next month for @IFT’s 2022 annual event and expo in Chicago!

[Secretary Tom Vilsack @SecVilsack]

It was a pleasure to join a listening session for the upcoming White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health. Nutrition security is a priority for me. It’s not only about ensuring families can put food on the table, it’s ensuring they can put healthy food on the table.

[Deputy Secretary Jewel Bronaugh @DepSecBronaugh]

It was an amazing moment to join @SecVilsack today to raise the Pride flag in celebration of the LGBTQI+ community. I am grateful to be a part of a Department that embraces all and is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Happy #PrideMonth!
