Introducing Gabriella Alphonso - Food and Nutrition Expert
I’m Gabriella Alphonso, and I joined Koné Consulting in May 2024. With over 8 years of experience, I am a dedicated food and nutrition professional focused on transforming food systems to achieve food security. My expertise encompasses key areas such as food security, SNAP, agricultural food recovery, preschool nutrition, and fresh produce safety. My skill set includes policy analysis, technical writing, mixed methods research and analysis, diet analysis, and developing capacity-building tools.
My background includes training in nutrition and dietetics, food technology, and public policy from Trinidad and Tobago (my homeland ❤️🇹🇹), the United Kingdom, and the U.S. This diverse education and experience have shaped my global perspective, allowing me to explore and understand the nuances of food programs, policies, and systems across different contexts, identifying commonalities, opportunities for improvement, and lessons learned.
I have worked on a range of projects, including addressing food insecurity among vulnerable populations, devising strategies for increasing agricultural recovery in the Global South, implementing physical activity initiatives for preschoolers, and creating capacity-building toolkits and platforms. My extensive experience equips me to tackle the complexities of food system transformation with a comprehensive approach.
I look forward to continued partnering opportunities with Koné Consulting and I would be happy to discuss being included on proposals for other firms/agencies if you think my qualifications would make for a good fit. Please let Christina Watson know (at christina.watson@koneconsulting.com) and she will make a connection.
Here’s to the future!
