OUR DREAM TEAM
Jayashree Salian
Public Health Director
Hello! I'm Jayashree, a recent MPH graduate as of December 2023, holding a double master's degree. Currently residing in Frisco, Texas, with my husband, I hail from India, where I earned my first master's in food science.
My initial master's research involved developing a weaning product for lactose-intolerant infants, a catalyst for my pursuit of an additional master's degree. This endeavor has expanded my expertise, enabling me to develop health programs for a broader audience. Through diverse work experiences, I've discovered my passion for tackling challenges, even outside my primary expertise. My professional focus has centered on tracking medication adherence, promoting mindful eating, and advocating for workouts to enhance overall quality of life. Proficient in therapeutic diets, clinical nutrition, and counseling for lifestyle modifications, I possess a deep understanding of lifestyle disease management through digital tools.
My enthusiasm for digital healthcare stems from its metrics and data-driven approach, where I enjoy analyzing patient data using various tools. I thrive in leadership roles and value teamwork, cherishing the diverse perspectives and experiences it brings.
Beyond my professional pursuits, I relish conversations about food and nutrition. Additionally, my love for gardening and nature is evident as I frequently plan road trips to national forests and state parks with my husband.
