Christian Fenton grew up in Columbia and said she chose the nutrition and exercise physiology degree program at the University of Missouri because of its focus on the influences of nutrition and physical activity on human health and disease. She said that with state-of-the-art facilities, there are multiple opportunities to see firsthand how exercise and healthy eating can affect an individual’s personal health, which also includes tooth health. She has already been accepted into the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) School of Dentistry through the Reserved Admissions Program. Photo courtesy of Christian Fenton.
