๐Ÿ’š Bessie Green is thrilled to welcome Ms. Sanon to our team as part of our pantry! โœจ๏ธ "Hi! My name is Sonicova Sanon, a rising junior at Montclair State University studying Nutrition and Food Science with a minor in Public Health. An interesting fact about me is that I am trilingual. I am passionate about serving my community, and I find great joy in supporting the well-being of others. My professional goal is to become a Certified Health Educator Specialist (CHES) and apply my academic background to positively impact people's eating habits. I hope to create meaningful memories at Bessie Green while hosting educational workshops that can reinforce people's healthy food choices and improve their overall health."
