Dr. Greg Hall welcomes Vanessa Rissetto, a registered dietitian, CEO, and Co-founder of Culina Health, a pioneering clinical nutrition care company founded in 2020.

Before switching careers to become a registered dietitian, Vanessa earned a bachelor’s degree in history from Fordham University and a master’s degree in marketing from NYU. Under Vanessa’s leadership, Culina Health has secured $13 million in venture funding. Culina Health consistently outperforms industry averages in patient outcomes.
