Mackenzie Merriman started off her career with an undergraduate degree at Fordham University in the Bronx, New York and pursued her love for fashion. Mackenzie received her degree in communications and worked in fashion and marketing in NYC, but realized her junior year she missed being involved in health and wellness after being an athlete all her life up to high school. Eventually she went on to graduate during the pandemic (2020) as well as start a coordinated masters program that same year at UConn where she would complete pre requisite classes and a combined masters and DI. Mackenzie landed herself in the sports nutrition department at UConn and has gained a variety of experiences in the past 4 years. Merriman plans to graduate in May and take the RD exam this summer with hopes of going on for a fellowship position in sports nutrition. Erin Ryan is a December 2023 graduate from Virginia Tech where she completed a Master of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics combined with supervised experiential learning hours. Prior to Virginia Tech, Erin began her undergraduate career in 2018 at Monmouth University in New Jersey and transferred after her freshman year to North Carolina State University.

She volunteered at the inaugural MLB draft combine in 2021 where she assisted dietitians with ISAK skinfold measurements on draft players, which motivated her to get ISAK Level 1 Certified in October 2023. She recently accepted a position as a Minor League Baseball Nutrition Fellow upon her passing of the RD exam this spring. Amber is an Olympic sports dietitian currently working for the University of Alabama. Her teams are volleyball and tennis, and she also helps out with football and mens basketball. Amber is a huge Hokie at heart completing both her undergrad degree and a combined masters/DI program at Virginia Tech. While at Virginia Tech she worked in a variety of ways for their athletics program from being a manger of the fueling station to working with teams such as womens soccer, volleyball, and wrestling. She also worked as a personal trainer while in college so health, performance, and nutrition have always been big passions of hers.

Afterwards, she went on to complete a combined MS/DI at Appalachian State University; after passing the RD exam she worked as a dietitian in private practice for 2 years before deciding to make the transition back to sports nutrition.
