    From Professional Athletes to Family Nutrition

Additionally, she has been an active member of the Sport Nutrition Advisory Council of Canada and the International Federation of Eating Disorder Dietitians. Moreover, she is registered with the British Columbia College of Health and Care Professionals.

    A Trusted Dietitian Media Expert & Mom
    Tristaca is consistently sought out by national media outlets to translate complex nutrition science into practical advice. Particularly, she has been a featured dietitian nutritionist expert across television, radio, and print, including:

    Passionate about getting kids into the kitchen early, Tristaca recently launched a fun YouTube miniseries alongside her own children.

In fact, many more videos are on the way!

    Tristaca's expertise is highlighted in her teaching positions at various universities. She served as an Adjunct Professor at the University of British Columbia (Okanagan), Okanagan College, and Thompson Rivers University. Additionally, she teaches five specialized nutrition courses through Acadia University’s distance education department.

    As a busy mom of two active boys, Tristaca truly understands how difficult it can be to feed a family well when life gets chaotic. As a result, she is eager to share her passion for sustainable, healthy living with clients across the Okanagan and nationwide.
