About me

Why Nutrition? 

Nutrition is something we should all be aiming to learn more about. It can literally change our lives. My aim is to help everyone discover a new love for healthy foods and to get you excited to eat real food again. Not only will you be able to better your own health but you will be able to guide the people you love most in the right direction too.

For the past two years, I have worked with professional sporting teams such as Bolton Wanderers, Wigan AFC and Manchester Giants. Educating teams (both academy teams age 12+ to the adult teams), on how the foods they eat, when they eat them, and the amounts they eat impact their overall performance. I have also done 1-1 sessions with these athletes, providing personalised nutrition plans to help them achieve their individual goals. 

Working alongside a trained Nutritional Therapist is an investment that you will reap the benefits of for a lifetime and not just for the short period of time you work with them. The investment into your health is one that you cannot put a price on, it is something that can change your life for the best or for the worst when you start to neglect it. Working with a Nutritional Therapist for just 3 to 6 months can significantly impact the rest of your life and the life of those you love.

Not only am I able to provide nutritional advice to support elite, athletic performance but also make sure each individuals everyday wellbeing and health is put as a priority throughout their plans. 

About me: 

I decided to learn all about nutrition because nothing makes me happier than food - that's really why.

I always enjoyed cooking but never had any idea about just how much of an impact it could have on my overall health. Growing up I hated anything deemed a 'healthy food'. I struggled to eat any fruits or vegetables because they would always be served boiled or steamed, basically they tasted horrible and wet. Whenever these foods were left on my plate I was told to eat them 'because they were good for me' with no real explanation as to why.

Nothing about whole foods caught my attention.

Nowadays, my perspective around healthy foods has changed. It doesn't feel like an effort to include them in my diet every day because I love them, genuinely. I love cooking them in different sauces and seasonings and creating textures that make them taste so moorish that I can't stop filling up on them. I now understand the different health benefits to all these wonderful foods and that just makes me want to eat them more.
