Meet the Owner

Amanda Pasko, MS, MPH | Registered Dietitian | USATF Level II Coach

I earned my undergraduate degree in Kinesiology & Sports Medicine from Rice University, a Master’s in Science in Nutritional Epidemiology from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and a Master’s in Nutrition from the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health. I gained experience in inpatient and outpatient settings at five hospitals, as well as in the university setting, and I knew the private practice setting would be the greatest opportunity to help others in my specific areas of expertise and provide highly individualized support.

My own pursuits in track & field have always been closely linked with my interests in nutrition. I am a USA Track & Field Level II Coach and have guided athletes to over 30 USATF National Medals. Over the past two years, I have won three world championships and four international competitions in the double heptathlon, involving all 14 indoor track & field events over two days, and double decathlon, involving all 20 outdoor track & field events over two days, in addition to some of the top heptathlon and decathlon scores in the country. Nutrition played a major role in progression in my sport, and I almost never hear a question or concern I have not personally experienced. Outside of nutrition and track, I love spending time with friends and family, traveling to new places and trying local cuisine, and spending time outside. I have a goal to do a track meet in all 50 states and visit each National Park in the US.

To me, nothing is more rewarding than helping others to reach their goals. With unique expertise in nutrition both to promote sports performance and overall health, as well as in track and field at the highest level, AP Nutrition & Performance was founded to help others to achieve the goals most meaningful to them. I am honored to serve individuals and help them to reach their potential in the areas that matter most, whether it be through nutrition or athletic performance.
