  • A Bit About Me

    Outside of work, you’ll find me enjoying sports like soccer (but don’t ask me to run just for the sake of it!). I’ve recently started CrossFit, and I’m loving the challenge. I’m also a big fan of all types of games—board games, video games—and have been successfully converted into an anime fan, thanks to my partner.

    And, of course, I love food! Exploring new flavours from different cultures is one of my favourite things, and I have a particular soft spot for sweets and pastries. As a clinician, I take a practical, flexible approach—I’ll always work alongside you, meet you where you’re at, and never force you to do something that doesn’t feel right. If you don’t like salad, I’m not going to tell you to eat it. If cooking feels overwhelming, we’ll look at simple, realistic meal ideas. My goal is to help you build a way of eating that works for you—not the other way around.

  • Why Do I Love My Job?

    For me, food is so much more than just fuel—it’s connection, culture, and celebration. We share moments over food, explore traditions through it, and create lifelong memories around the table. That’s why I’m passionate about helping people build a healthy, enjoyable, and sustainable relationship with food that supports their unique health goals.

    One of the most rewarding parts of my job is empowering individuals and families to feel comfortable and confident in their food choices. I love hearing people’s stories, guiding them through challenges, and seeing them achieve their goals in a way that truly works for them. It’s especially meaningful to support families and young kids in fostering a positive relationship with food—because those early experiences can shape a lifetime of well-being.
