Kayla Jones, Nutrition Coach

Texas Women’s University

I completed the Coordinated Masters and Dietetic Internship Program specializing in Exercise and Sports Nutrition from Texas Women’s University. Following the completion of my Master’s degree, I joined the University of North Texas Sports Nutrition staff and have been fueling the Mean Green ever since in a variety of positions, most recently as the Director of Sports Nutrition. I have been working primarily with collegiate athletes for the past 4 years. I am most passionate about health and nutrition in the athletic capacity. My background in clinical nutrition has also allowed me to help athletes with various health issues outside of sport. I strive to utilize my professional knowledge and skills to help people improve their health status and sports performance. As a former collegiate athlete myself, I love working with and molding youth and young adult population groups to have better habits and appreciate how paying attention to the little things such as nutrition can help them be a better athlete.
