Meet the Instructor

Hi there!
My name is Jill Harrison. I am a Registered Dietitian and a full time faculty member here at SRJC in the Health Sciences Department. I have been teaching nutrition and dietetics for the last seven years. Before that I worked as a clinical dietitian for Kaiser in San Rafael and Queen of the Valley Hospital in Napa. I also have experience in outpatient nutrition, teaching classes and helping people design meal plans for their medical conditions.
I love teaching because I can use all my past experience in my classes. I also love working with students and helping them decide on a pathway in the nutrition profession or just answering all their interesting questions about diet and health! In our world nutrition can be very confusing so my hope is to help you see it more clearly to improve your health and well being.
When I am not teaching I love to be with my boys who are 16 and 19, my husband and our dogs. We try to get outdoors as much as we can hiking or going to the beach. I also do lots of yoga and spend time working on my yard or my garden.
