Meet your 2018-2019 Healthy Aggies Interns!
Anna Bui
Major and year: Clinical Nutrition, 4th Year
About me: Hello, my name is Anna Bui and I am a new member of the Healthy Aggies Nutrition team! In all honesty, I find cooking fun and enjoyable, but I am not the “best” chef out there. My favorite meal to cook during the day is breakfast/brunch! I love making a quick, easy, and basic avocado toast with a runny sunny side egg and a drizzle of Sriracha. I also need to have a fruit throughout the day and my top three favorite fruits are watermelon, blueberries, and cherries. I am very indecisive, so I can’t pick my absolute favorite fruit. A few hobbies I enjoy are binge-watching Youtube videos, hiking, napping, and exploring the city with my friends. 🙂
Ines Cheng
Major and Year: Clinical Nutrition Major, French Minor, 2nd Year
About me: Hi! I’m Ines and I currently am a Healthy Aggies Nutrition intern. I grew up with two different cultures which have given me the opportunity to eat many different foods. I love making easy yet delicious dishes, and currently, my favorite meal is a Greek salad (or anything with pesto). Apart from that, I love spending time with my loved ones, watching HGTV, and eating food! I love all fruits but my all time favorite are peaches!
Rini Jablonski
Laura Lucas Pablo
Major/minor and Year: Human Development, Public Health Minor, 3th Year
About me: Hi! My name is Laura Pablo and I am a new member of the Healthy Aggies Nutrition team. I grew up in Guatemala and coming to the United States was one of the biggest changes that happened in my life especially because of the food. Currently, one of my favorite dishes to make at home is Ezekiel bread with egg white and avocado(or anything else). Breakfast is one of my favorite meals and I can’t skip it! I would say that one of my favorite vegetables is zucchini and a fruit would be banana!. I love going to the gym and also dancing.
Clara Matsumoto
Major and Year: Clinical Nutrition, 3rd Year
About me: Hi! I’m Clara and I am a Healthy Aggies Nutrition Intern. I grew up in Southern California playing basketball and volleyball. I’ve always been a curious and adventurous foodie, so my meals vary depending on what I’m inspired by. At the moment, I’ve been making spicy tofu stir fry on top of coconut jasmine brown rice, but also a fall salad that I absolutely LOVE is an arugula chicken salad with cherry tomatoes and delicata squash! My love of fruit is immense, so a couple of my favorites are raspberry, passionfruit, and mango. My hobbies include reading, hanging out with friends, and watching the Great British Bake Off.
Ruth Vodonos
Major and Year: Clinical Nutrition, 4th Year
About me: Hi, my name is Ruth and I am a Healthy Aggies Nutrition intern. I love to spend time with friends, paint or draw, and bake! My current go-to meal is couscous anything because it can be made into a meal in so many different ways that it’s hard to get bored of. One of my favorite fruits is strawberries, but I love using bananas in my baking!
Karina Castillo
Major and Year: Clinical Nutrition, 4th Year
About me: Hi everyone! I’m Karina and I work as the Intern Coordinator for the Healthy Aggies team. While I am not the best at cooking, I enjoy trying to recreate my favorite Thai dishes like coconut curry. I like to go hiking, cute dog watching, and I love going to Disneyland! My favorite fruit would be a toss-up between persimmons and blackberries. Either makes me happy:)
