About Me ________________________________________ Angela Pifer was born and raised in the greater Seattle area. She earned her undergraduate in Psychology and Premed from the University of Washington, where she worked for two years training in motivational interviewing and counseled peers with eating disorders. She then earned her Masters of Science from Bastyr University and worked one year as a student clinician at the Bastyr Center for Natural Health. While attending Bastyr, Angela was President of The Student Association of Nutritionists and Dieticians and started a mentor program for incoming students. While serving as President, she started and acquired funding for an 800 square foot organic garden at Marymoor Park in Redmond. Angela still runs the organic garden and serves on the board of the Marymoor Park Garden as Vice-President. Angela is a certified nutritionist in Washington State, owner of The Nourished Body and creator of The Nourished Nation and The Nourished Community. She works privately with children and adults out of her Carillon Point office in Kirkland. She specializes in the development of customized nutrition programs, offering the continued support and guidance to help each of her clients meet their lifestyle goals. She has worked extensively with young and adult athletes, weight loss, diabetes, food sensitivities and countering the effects of menopause. Angela also consults with major corporations on how they can implement corporate wellness into their employee’s lives and recently developed the “Get Nourished, Get Fit” program for Emerald City Smoothie. Angela is passionate about promoting a positive relationship with food because nutrition is a crucial component in a healthy lifestyle. Angela helps each client develop a personal definition of 'good nutrition'. Our culture of dieting has drawn us away from listening to our bodies and its needs. She teaches her clients how to begin to listen to theses cues, how to strategize their daily and weekly food intake and how to break the dieting cycle. Angela encourages her clients to set realistic goals and to implement change gradually. By doing so these gradual changes become routines and habits that can take hold over a lifetime. Angela worked for over 15 years as a volunteer at the Woodland Park Zoo. She is the youngest volunteer allowed entry into the Docent program. As a public educator, she led tours and provided talks to visitors, with topics ranging from Endangered Species to the Ecological and Societal Impact of Poaching. She also worked behind the scenes with many of the keepers on research projects. While attending the University of Washington Angela combined her passion for animals with her love of psychology, while she worked for the behavioral research scientists for a year observing the lowland gorilla troop at the zoo. She has kissed a giraffe, held lion and tiger cubs, stood face to face with an African elephant, fed a full grown Kodiak bear by hand, held hands with an orangutan, scratched a tapirs chin, and held an indigo snake (her favorite). For the past two years Angela has worked as a volunteer for the MEOW Cat Rescue Shelter in Kirkland, Washington. She was thrilled to be asked to MC the 2007 Fine Wines & Felines Auction, held on Mercer Island. The auction goal was met! $30,000 was raised! When she retires she will open a cat shelter of her own. Angela believes that health care professionals should live by the principles they teach. She stays in shape and maintains a youthful appearance by eating a diet low in processed foods and incorporating activity into her daily schedule. When choosing a certified nutritionist, she believes clients need to find someone they feel comfortable with and someone who inspires them. Angela leads weekly hikes and walks with her clients, emphasizing that activity can be fun and inspirational. By following the principles she teaches, she has been successful at maintaining her BMI, weight for height and percent body fat within ideal ranges for over two decades.
