Sam Pellis

3rd-Year Student

Hello everyone! My name is Sam Pellis, and I am a third-year Nutritional Sciences major on the Health Sciences track. My goal is to get my master's in public health and hope to become a registered dietitian.

I am from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Outside of classes, I am the Secretary of the Student Nutrition Association and the Primary Chair for SNA Benefiting THON. In my free time, I like to cook, workout, and spend time with friends!

2nd-Year Student

Hi! My name is Keira Schreiber; I am a second-year student studying Nutritional Sciences on the Nutrition and Dietetics track, I hope to pursue a career as a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) and work in clinical nutrition. 

I am from State College, PA and have always loved being a townie! Outside of the classroom I work as a Group Fitness Instructor for Penn State Campus Recreation, a research assistant in the Diet and Cardiometabolic lab, a Student Nutrition Liaison with the Dining Dietitians, and work as a hostess at the Corner Room. Along with these, some clubs I am involved in are Student Nutrition Association and HHD Ambassadors! Some hobbies I have are lifting, walking, reading, and going to coffee shops to study or with friends!

This initiative highlights our Nutritional Sciences major through the eyes of Sam and Keira. We encourage you to follow them, comment on posts, ask questions, and even offer to provide your own experience as a student.
