Elaine Koontz

I am a staff writer and member of the management team for www.rd411.com. This is a peer-reviewed website, reaching 30,000 dietitians and health care professionals each month, with more than 165,000 page views each month. I have also been published in Vibrant Life magazine, Plus magazine, The Erickson Tribune newspaper, thesavvygal online magazine, and Skirt! magazine. As a food panelist for the Dominion Post newspaper in Morgantown, West Virginia, I acted as both a food writer and a food and equipment evaluator.

I previously worked as a clinical dietitian covering pediatrics and as a director of food and nutrition services. I currently split my time between an acute care hospital and a wellness center where I provide outpatient nutrition counseling and teach group classes.
