In recent years, I have beaten several illnesses which has increased my passion for nutrition to maintain health and prevent disease. My love of writing and media work has allowed me to engage with a larger audience and spread a realistic, entertaining message that is backed by science. My career has seen me assess everything from corporate menus to childcare ones.
I've melded humour and fact through interviews with Channel 7; The Herald Sun; Cosmopolitan and Women's Fitness Magazine. I am passionate about improving nutrition for our babies and children so that they can have a healthier life. My experience has taught me that realistic, fun advice will more often than not be the perfect recipe for success.
Approach: Realistic, humorous, and science-based; described as 'more about witticism than criticism'; practical and relatable
Weight Loss Approach
