About Me

Food has been my lifelong passion, and it was only natural for me to find a way to share that love with others through my career. Over the past five years, I’ve dedicated myself to completing a Bachelor of Nutrition, all while balancing work as a carer and cooking for my grandchildren. Now, I’m diving into my Master of Secondary Education, blending my knowledge of nutrition with my drive to connect communities through workshops. Ultimately, my goal is to become a home economics teacher—empowering the next generation with the tools to understand functional nutrition and celebrate the incredible power of food.

I am currently in the process of becoming registered with Nutrition Society of Australia, and already registered with Nutrition Australia. You can view my other qualifications on my LinkedIn profile.
