My name is Maribel Renteria and I am a WIC Nutrition Assistant and Child Development Specialist at Lundquist WIC. As a WIC Nutrition Assistant, I educate WIC participants on nutrition, provide breastfeeding support, and give community referrals. As a Child Development Specialist, I am trained in identifying development and psychological disorders in children. I work one-on one with children during the screening and diagnosis phase and I support parents through the process.

Outside of work, I love to go see plays, go bowling, and visit tranquil places. My dream vacation is to visit Israel. I spend a lot of time with my family. I enjoy watching movies and eating homemade foods. The families we provide services to and all the remarkable people I work with; are the reason I want to come to work each day. I am thankful for all the kindness of the families we serve and of the agency I work for.
