SARAH SCHINDEL

Also this month, the UW-Extension Marinette/Oconto Counties added Sarah Schindel as the FoodWIse nutrition educator. As a member of the FoodWIse team, Schindel will be a peer educator for individuals and families to adopt healthy food and physical activity habits.

Schindel graduated from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College with an associate degree as a physical therapy assistant. She also is a certified personal trainer with the American College of Sports Medicine. Schindel has previous experience in the field of health and wellness promotion.

“Sarah will be an asset to the FoodWIse program in Marinette and Oconto counties,” Crevier said.

FoodWIse is federally funded by the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education, or SNAP-Ed, grant.
