Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk, PhD, RDN, LD, ATC, CSCS, NSCA-CPT, FAND 

Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Rehabilitation, Exercise, & Nutrition Science at the University of Cincinnati. She is a member of the Healthy Foods Steering Community for the American Heart Association and Cradle Cincinnati’s Research & Evaluation Advisory Board due to her work locally in underserved communities and research with and for Black women.

Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk worked in clinical dietetics for over fifteen years focusing on chronic disease management before coming to UC. Prior to her career in dietetics, Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk worked as an assistant athletic trainer and strength coach at the University of Chicago. It was her experience at the University of Chicago that facilitated her return for another master’s degree in dietetics. Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk earned a master’s degree in Kinesiology and Health from Illinois State University and two additional master’s degrees in dietetics and chemistry from Ball State University. She completed an interdisciplinary Ph.D. in Educational Leadership and Health Promotion with an emphasis in cultural studies from Miami University.   

Dr. Knox-Kazimirczuk is passionate about addressing birthing and breastfeeding disparities through engaging and cultivating community assets to shift narratives, policies, and resources. This paradigm shift requires a thorough examination of societal structures which perpetuates power imbalances and scarcity in low resourced neighborhoods. Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk has used her experience as a trained Qualified Administrator for the Intercultural Competence Development Inventory (IDI) and her twelve years of experience facilitating Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DE&I) workshops to address inequities. Dr. Knox-Kazimierczuk’s believes an integral component of systems change is supporting the community, enabling them to act agenticly.
