Food for Health

“[While studying to be a ballet dancer] … I saw a lot of my classmates struggling with disordered eating and distorted ideas about food, health, and nutrition. It got me thinking: how do people approach health? And how do we make sure that food is being discussed as a tool to make ourselves healthy, rather than used as a weapon against ourselves?”

— Shelby Panttaja, Maternal & Child Health MPH

As an undergraduate, Shelby taught a nutrition class in her local refugee community. That experience shaped her personal mission to make better health possible for all immigrant and refugee communities. Now with her MPH, she is doing just that at the Minnesota Department of Health.
