Viviana Davila

3rd-Year Student

Hello, everyone! I am Viviana Davila, and I am a third-year student pursuing a double major in Nutritional Sciences and Psychology, and a minor in Spanish. I aspire to become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and specialize in eating disorders.

My hometown is San Juan, Puerto Rico. Currently, I work on a research lab that studies the cognition of eating behaviors in children. Outside of academics, I enjoy working out, going to coffee shops, spending time with my dog, and watching movies.

Lindsay Aluquin

3rd-Year Student

Hi folks! My name is Lindsay Aluquin, and I’m a 3rd-year Nutritional Sciences Schreyer student pursuing the Nutritional Physiology and Biochemistry option. Additionally, I am minoring in Global Health and Spanish.

With my plans for medical school and diverse undergraduate background, I hope to one day serve marginalized communities as a cardiologist or pediatrician.

My hometown is Hershey, PA. Currently, I work as a research assistant at the Center for Childhood Obesity Research. Additionally, I am happily involved in student organizations such as:

Presidential Leadership Academy
Penn State Filipino Association
Singing Lions
THON™

Finally, I love to cook, exercise, try new restaurants, and read self-help books.

This initiative highlight’s our Nutritional Sciences major through the eyes of Viviana and Lindsay. We encourage you to follow them, comment on posts, ask questions, and even offer to provide your own experience as a student.
