Hi, I’m Miha Nambara! I’m from Springfield, MO, and I earned my undergraduate degree from Missouri State University. In the fall, I will be starting my master’s at Boston University. I've always been the biggest foodie and lover of sports, which has driven me to pursue a career in sports nutrition. Outside of school, I enjoy playing pickleball, baking, traveling, and going for runs.
