CJ Reynolds
Diabetes Educator
CJ grew up in the big sky of Central Montana. She returned to her native Iowa to attend Iowa State University where she earned her BS in nutrition.

Cheryl Winter, MS RD, MS APRN, CDE, FNP-BC
Nurse Pracitioner
Starting out in the healthcare arena as a masters-prepared registered dietitian, Cheryl has always been professionally driven by the mantra: “Food is Medicine and Medicine is Food.” After a 7-year career as a registered dietitian mostly working in the intensive care units of Houston’s Texas Medical Center, Cheryl concluded that becoming a nurse would help her empower her patients to understand the medicinal properties of food, in treating their health conditions. Therefore, Cheryl obtained a second bachelor’s degree and became a registered nurse. After many years of working as an intensive care nurse and treating the sickest of the sick, Cheryl became even more determined to reduce the significant suffering she witnessed and help prevent people from ever getting sick and requiring hospitalization in the first place. She therefore combined her nursing and nutrition credentials and forged her career in the outpatient diabetes arena to become a certified diabetes educator, working to keep people healthy and out of hospitals. In 2006, Cheryl was fortunate to land an exciting job as a diabetes educator at a facility on the cutting edge of treatments that improve people’s lives. This facility was DiabetesAmerica. While working here, Cheryl knew she had found her calling in the area of diabetes and wanted to again further her knowledge by becoming a family nurse practitioner. Cheryl briefly left DiabetesAmerica to pursue this educational goal, but soon returned in September 2010 after her graduation with her second master’s degree. She is excited to be at DiabetesAmerica, practicing as a healthcare provider, where she is able to continue her mantra, “Food is Medicine and Medicine is Food,” since treatment with food is always her first choice in treating people with diabetes, along with individualizing care with other medically necessary treatments. Cheryl lives with her husband in The Woodlands/Conroe, Texas area. They have two daughters, one a musical theater devotee living in New York City, and the other a meteorologist, working on a graduate degree at Rice University. When not working, Cheryl enjoys exercising, boating, painting, interior design, and spending quality time with her amazing family.
