Nicole Rodriguez is an award-winning dietitian nutritionist based in the New York Metro area. In addition to serving a diverse clientele via her telehealth-based practice, she is also the co-founder of Step Bite Step, a weight loss and physical activity program. A self-described agvocate, Nicole is passionate about empowering individuals to feel good about the abundance of food choices at their fingertips, and utilizes her co-hosting duties on the Food Bullying podcast to do just that.

While Nicole loves working one-on-one with clients toward their health goals, she also helps spread the good word about food via her brand partnerships which have included American Dairy Northeast, the New York Beef Council, Bush Brothers and Company, General Mills, Wish Farms, California Leafy Greens and Bayer Crop Science. She has been featured in numerous outlets and publications including Good Housekeeping, Livestrong, WTEN-ABC, and WAMC. When she’s not immersed in all things food and fitness (she is forever perfecting her pancake recipe and deadlifting technique), you can find her digging through the crates (of disco-funk vinyl) and taking long walks on the beach (and yes, she knows that sounds so cliché)
