“Dr. Roe was a wonderful preceptor during my time as a dietetics student. She takes the time to
get to know her students, their goals and how she can help facilitate growth as a student and
future dietitian. Her enthusiasm and passion for community nutrition and the profession of
dietetics made my time as a student a memorable experience. She has set the standard as a
mentor and professional!” Megan Follett, MS, RDN, LD, Class of 2023
“I really enjoyed having Annie as a preceptor. Something that really stood out to me about her
guidance was that she was very organized and had already created a calendar for what she
wanted us to accomplish. That being said, she gave us the freedom to decide how we were going
to accomplish and approach each task. She really challenged us utilize the creativity part of our
brains, which was not only fun, but also expanded my skills as a nutrition educator. She also
encouraged us communicate and collaborate with other professionals outside of our department
so that we could provide the best, and most evidence-based education possible. This improved
my overall communication skills over the phone and email.” Sophia Raasch, MS, RDN, CD,
