Meet Alex Gallant-Wood, Registered Dietitian and UPEI Foods and Nutrition Class of 2016 graduate
What brought you to UPEI? Why did you choose to study here?
I've always loved PEI! I visited every summer and during many holidays because I have lots of extended family here. I'm originally from Hammonds Plains, Nova Scotia and attended UPEI from 2012 to 2016. UPEI's brand-new Health Sciences Building opened in my first year, and I received an admissions scholarship for the Foods and Nutrition program.
