I am an Accredited Practicing Dietitian and the owner of Feed Your Future Dietetics. I believe everyone deserves to live a life of health and wellness. I am passionate about helping people achieve their highest quality of life through nutrition, mental health and exercise. I hold a Masters of Nutrition and Dietetics and a Bachelor of Human Nutrition. In addition to being an Accredited Practicing Dietitian, I am also a qualified personal trainer and group fitness instructor and have been working in the fitness industry for over 15 years. I was an elite gymnast as well as an elite rock climber where I represented Australia for four years. I have been exercising for as long as I can remember. Knowing the benefits of moving the body and eating well, and the impact that awareness and nutritional education has on the quality of life, I want to give back to the community in ways that I know best.
