Hi, I’m Dr. A’nna M. Roby, a PhD, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Physiologist.

EDUCATION
I graduated top of my class, Summa cum laude from Cornell University where I majored in Nutritional Sciences. After receiving my Bachelor’s in Science, I was accepted into the only combined PhD/RD position where I simultaneously completed my PhD and dietetic internship to become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist.
I was fortunate to receive world-renowned training from experts in the field of human nutrition, molecular and integrative physiology, and psychology. I conducted multiple randomized, controlled trials at Cornell University during graduate school and as a Clinical Associate Translational Metabolic Investigator at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). I furthered my psychology education through Harvard University to better help clients with behavior change.

My approach
Evidence meets expertise
One of the biggest things that make me unique is my background in research. It’s common to see people citing research to back up their claims, but unless they have been trained in research and know how to critically analyze it, they risk drawing wrong conclusions.
I take a truly evidence-based approach to working with clients. I’m constantly reading and analyzing new research to find new and effective strategies which form a starting point, then I tailor recommendations to every individual so every client can get their unique needs met as quickly as possible.
“From the first time I met with Anna it was clear she was very knowledgeable. Anna has a researched based mind-set and approach to her nutrition coaching that separates her from the competition.“
