BHSc Nutritional & Dietetic Medicine

I will keep this short, but give you an idea of where my passion for nutrition, health and wellness stems from.

 

I’m in my fifties—so still young, but old enough to have learnt a few things—and a mother of two. My son was born partially deaf and has multiple food allergies and this began my journey of trying to understand why. Cooking for my son pushed me to get creative in the kitchen, finding ways to prepare meals without gluten, dairy, nuts, eggs, and sesame seeds, all while ensuring his nutritional needs were met and the food was still delicious. Over time, my family has adapted well to this way of eating. Thankfully, my son can now enjoy eggs and some nuts, which has made meal preparation a bit easier.

My passion for nutrition grew from these personal experiences and led me to pursue formal education. I earned my Bachelor of Health Science in Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine, driven by a deep commitment to helping others through the power of food.

​

My background is in Horticulture and I love growing veggies and herbs, gardening is where I spend my down time and the beach is where I re-energise.

​

I want to share my knowledge and help anyone who is struggling with their health, whether it be advice on how to feed your family or complex chronic conditions, so we can all live well and feel great.
