I am a Clinical Nutritionist (BHSc- Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine) and a Personal Trainer who has a passion for the power and healing properties of food and exercise. I love to help people discover their true health through diet and lifestyle changes that fit perfectly with their ideal lifestyle.

When I came to Naturopathy, it was to resolve my personal health challenges. I felt let down by the current medical model and lost in a plethora of information to get to the bottom of why I was feeling just terrible, despite being one of the ‘healthiest’ people I knew! I was unable to get the support I needed from our medical system, constrained by unrealistically short appointments and with no clearly diagnosed illness. Ultimately, I was compelled to look for answers elsewhere, finding them in the world of natural therapies and a wholistic approach. My commitment to all my patients is to make sure you get the support you need, to go beyond the surface level approach, understand the drivers behind your symptoms, and identify which changes can help you get back on top of your game. Let’s make this life one of joy and resilience!
