Joanna Bundros, MS, RDN (she/her)

Health Education Assistant

Biography: 

I have had the privilege of doing community health and nutrition work for about 10 years, both in the local Humboldt area, and over in the Sacramento valley. I was born here in Humboldt, and was so excited to get to move back to the area, and be a part of this community. The outdoors has always been a place that supports my mental health, and I love taking our dogs out on hikes, heading to the beach, or getting dirty out in our garden. I believe that conversations about health are also conversations about social justice, equity, inclusivity, and honoring our own lived experiences.
