Meet Selena Sharpless

Registered Dietitian & Creative Operations Assistant at Bakerita.com

Selena Sharpless is the Registered Dietitian and Creative Operations Assistant behind Bakerita! She joined the team in December of 2020, and helps with the creative back-end work, photography, and nutrition information for all the delicious recipes you find around here!

Selena currently runs her own blog, The Nutritious Kitchen, where she combines her passion for developing paleo-ish recipes and exploring creativity through food photography and holistic wellness.

She earned her bachelor’s degree in Nutrition Science from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and completed extensive dietetic training at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston where she became a Registered Dietitian, specializing in sports nutrition.

While she has a strong science background, her true calling is in the kitchen or behind the camera, creating connections that bring us joy through food, imagery, and creative expression. Her overall mission is to inspire you to fuel your body and feed the soul.

Outside of food photography and Bakerita work, you can find her on a sunrise run, sourcing ceramics, or making a foamy cashew milk latte while planning her next travel adventure…
