Reina holds a master's degree in public health nutrition from New York University. She is fascinated by the intersections between food, health, social justice, and environmentalism and is particularly interested in how the food environment influences personal choice (e.g., food marketing to children). She can usually be found in a kitchen (making food), on a couch (contemplating economic systems, climate change, and resiliency), in a park (soaking up the green), or Instagramming anywhere. She lives in Brooklyn with a man and two cats.
