HMC Dietitian Professional
Leading the Way
Enthusiastic, Entertaining, Empowering, Experienced, Excellent!
 Those are just a few words that describe Julie Tharalson, RD, and Culinary Professional. As a Regional Dietitian for HMC, Julie travels throughout California and has been respectfully referred to as the "Queen of the Highway."
Julie is leading the way in building upon her profession as a Registered Dietitian into the Culinary Field as an educator within the healthcare industry and beyond. Her enthusiasm, generous laughter and encouragement provides one with the tools and tips to find success in their own kitchen.
