My Story

Growing up, I was not a very athletic kid. In fact, I was overweight. Fast forward to middle school when my parents encouraged me to take up a sport. Any sport. I just had to do something. I decided to join the tennis team.

At first, it was “okay”. I didn’t love it but I continued to show up.

As time went on, however, my mindset started to shift. I began to enjoy tennis practice and even took up running (several years later I would run my first half marathon).

Along the way, however, I started to become obsessive with “healthy eating and working out”. It was a fine line and my relationship with food was no longer a healthy one.

So how did I get to where I am now in my journey?

By understanding my body and listening to what it wants and needs. By combining the science of sports nutrition with the physiological, psychological and social aspects of food and body. 

It’s a continuous process of reconnecting with your own body and understanding it.

Together, we can find the right approach that works for you. Let’s heal your relationship with food. For good. And let’s reconnect with your body.

Through individualized and group coaching with a primary focus on nutrition science combined with individualized needs and relationship to food and body,  I aim to help you find balance in your busy life and empower self-confidence and comfort in your own skin.

Warmly,
