Jayleen Castaneda, MS, RD, LDN

Jayleen graduated in 2021 with her Master's of Science degree in Dietetics and Nutrition from Florida International University. She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Health Sciences at the University of South Florida. During the long-term care rotation of her dietetic internship, she realized how rewarding it was to work with this community and she enjoyed being a part of their recovery. Even though she is new to healthcare, she is eager to grow and make an impact on the health of our geriatric community. Jayleen loves seeing the residents enjoying their meals and regaining a happy, healthy quality of life. In her spare time, she enjoys traveling, trying new foods, music festivals, and playing with her puppy, Freyja.
