I take great pride in being a dietitian as it was my dream since I was 16 years old. During my high school years, I was a competitive swimmer. Although I loved swimming it also brought body image challenges. Amidst comparisons with leaner teammates, I questioned if my body was "right" for the sport. Pressure to perform made me focus on appearance over capabilities. It was not until I met with a dietitian at the age of 16 where I was able to shift my perspective to embrace body changes and finding self-acceptance. This experience is something I strive to share with my patients every day.
My academic journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Science from Deakin University followed by an Honours degree in Health Science and finally Masters of Dietetics from Swinburne University. Successful completion of my studies and ongoing training has allowed me to retain full accreditation with Dietitians Australia.
