With over 15 years of diverse experience in several areas of nutrition, a BS in Clinical Dietetics, a Masters degree in Nutrition Education, and a Certificate of training for Childhood and Adolescent Weight Management, Melissa Halas-Liang is no nutritional lightweight. As a Registered Dietitian, nutrition educator, and a mom, Melissa's passion for raising a generation of healthy eaters allowed her to launch SuperKids Nutrition - an invaluable resource through which she provides nutrition articles, resources, learning activities, and newsletters which motivate children, families and educators. She combines both an evidenced based and holistic approach to help her clients and audience reach their health goals. With the creation of the Super Crew Kids - a group of superhero kids who get their powers from healthy foods - Melissa has been able to reach children directly through her books about their adventures, and the many tips and activities available on the website. She provides workshops to parents, educators and kids on making healthy eating fun! She truly is "saving the world, one healthy food at a time."
