Our Founder & CEO
Nicole Wempe, RD
SNU’s founder, Nicole Wempe, has experience working with athletes at the University of Kentucky, University of Illinois, Utah Valley University, and Valparaiso University. She knows the kind of challenges college athletes are up against when it comes to nutrition education and lifestyle changes.
Athletes are BEHIND when it comes to their nutrition, and they don’t have to be. Nutrition skills and behaviors can be learned and applied at any level so that athletes can GET AHEAD in performing at their best. Nicole also grew up playing sports and loves to compete. She is familiar with that hunger of wanting to be the best and win while staying healthy and injury-free in the process.
