Professional Experience

I'm a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Holistic Life Coach with a gift of storytelling. I've reported on several health topics including women's health, whole foods nutrition, women's rights, and overall wellbeing. For my full portfolio, please visit my business site at http://www.aliciaarmeli.com/portfolio.html. Having master's degrees in English and Nutrition ensures my work is engaging, well researched, and will keep readers coming back for more. My experiences range from writing for international health corporations to online health magazines. I always deliver on schedule but I'm also flexible to client needs. I’m creative, hard working, communicative, obsessive with grammar, and a whiz at APA citation. Basically, from the moment you hire me, I'm your literary Girl Friday.
