My Background
I am a UK-registered Dietitian and Sport & Exercise Nutritionist with over 20 years of experience across clinical practice & performance nutrition.
My areas of interest include women’s health, digestive health, weight management, preventative health and performance nutrition. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about helping people make informed choices about food and nutrition through practical, evidence-based advice that supports long-term health, wellbeing and performance.
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Nutrition & Dietetics from King’s College London and an MSc in Public Health Nutrition from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). My clinical career began in the NHS and I currently work within a specialist independent hospital, supporting both NHS and private patients with complex clinical needs, with a particular focus on mental health.
Alongside my clinical work, I have specialised in sport and exercise nutrition since 2006, when I established my freelance practice. I have worked with healthcare providers, fitness organisations and performing arts institutions including Marylebone Physio, Third Space Canary Wharf, London Studio Centre and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. I have also delivered lectures, workshops, conference presentations and educational programmes for organisations including One Dance UK and the National Institute of Dance Medicine and Science (NIDMS).
Having trained with the Royal Academy of Dance and completed a BA (Hons) degree in Dance, I have a unique understanding of the physical, psychological and artistic demands of performance environments. This experience led me to write Nutrition for Dancers, published by Dance Books Ltd.
I am registered with the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC) and am a member of the British Dietetic Association (BDA).
