Nutrition and Dietetics Bachelor’s Degree from California State University of Northridge.
My name is Stephanie Martinez Guevara and I obtained my Nutrition and Dietetics Bachelor’s Degree from California State University of Northridge back in December of 2018. During my education at CSUN, I learned everything from the basics of macronutrients and micronutrients to medical nutrition therapy. I also had the opportunity to become a Peer Nutrition Counselor and a Sports Nutrition Intern during my last semester.
In May of 2016, I injured my lower back which caused 2 herniated discs. That has put many limitations on my personal journey in fitness. Due to my injury, I have been advised to stay away from everyday movements, such as squats and deadlifts. Although I am limited I don't let that stop me. Instead, I look for modified or alternative movements.
My passion for helping others eat a more balanced diet led me to fitness. I am a strong believer that in order to have a better lifestyle you need a combination of both. This is why I decided to become a personal trainer/coach to help others reach their goals in both aspects.
