Jessica Knight is a Registered and Certified Dietitian. She earned her Master of Science in Applied Nutrition and Dietetics from Logan University. After completing a Bachelor of Arts in Biology at Binghamton University, she discovered her passion for nutrition while working as a health coach and neurofeedback technician at a functional psychiatry clinic. 

 

During her dietetic internship in St. Louis, Missouri, she concentrated her clinical focus on outpatient nutrition counseling with a body-positive, intuitive, and weight-neutral approach at Alo Nutrition. Additionally, she worked with Sensory Solutions and Missouri First Steps to provide nutrition therapy for children with developmental and feeding delays. She enjoyed helping individuals and families find creative solutions that suited their unique needs.

 

Jess achieved her master level Usui Reiki certification in 2019 and believes that a mind-body approach is key to sustaining overall wellbeing. She creates a supportive environment to help her clients reach their nutrition and health goals in a way that works for them, by reducing guilt, minimizing restriction, and building a healthier relationship with food. 

 

Working at Wild Hill Farm in Ionia, New York as a field hand and distribution manager during the 2023 season, Jess learned to sustainably grow produce that nourished her community. This experience fostered her interest in the connection between agriculture and nutrition. In addition to writing and publishing agricultural advocacy pieces, she offers education and resources to interested clients on topics including fermentation, cooking, canning, home gardening, and local food sourcing. 

In her free time, Jess enjoys traveling, cooking, playing the guitar, hiking with friends, and growing fruits, vegetables, and flowers. You’ll often find her working with her boyfriend on their farm in Farmington, NY, restoring the property’s historic barns and dreaming of ways to share healthy food with their community in the future.
