Shelley A. Rael, MS RD LD

I am a speaker, writer, and consultant for workgroups and individuals on nutrition, fitness, and wellness related topics. My primary target audience is busy professionals (whether single or with a family) and recretional athletes. With stressed and busy lives, most people make excuses to not be active or eat well. I help them to stop making excuses, so they can better deal with their stressed and busy lives. I understand stressed and busy.

I am a registered dietitian (RD) and nutrition expert in Albuquerque, NM (USA). With over 13 years in worksite wellness, I am in private practice and teach at Central New Mexico Community College (CNM CC) and the University of New Mexico as adjunct faculty. I am the immediate Past-Chair of Nutrition Entrepreneurs Dietetic Practice Group of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (fomerly the American Dietetic Association).

I love running and cycling and have completed several 1/2 marathons, two marathons, a few sprint triathlons and a few centuries. I am a foodie too. I love to travel especially to experience food.
