Get to Know a WAMDA BoD Member: Bridget Gosiewski, MS, RDN, LDN, Treasurer Elect
Current place of employment and job title:
I work at Trinity Health of New England in Springfield, MA as one of the bariatric dietitians.
What inspired you to pursue a career in nutrition and dietetics?
I always enjoyed the topic of nutrition, so when I learned I could have a career in nutrition and then use that knowledge to help others, I was sold!
Why did you become a WAMDA member?
I joined WAMDA this year because I love what I do as a dietitian and WAMDA felt like an excellent way to expand what I do as a dietitian to help others. It is also a great way to get to know other dietitians in the area!
What goals do you have for your career?
I received my MS in nutrition this past year, so that was a huge check for my bucket list. Currently I am happy in bariatrics, but I could also see myself happy in an inpatient clinical setting.
What are your favorite hobbies outside of work?
I spend a lot of time practicing yoga, spending quality time with my rabbit (Lacey), and I’ve recently gotten into going to some local hockey games (go UMass!).
