Nutrition Clinic Now Open
Santé Logic Nutrition Clinic is now open in Feb 2026.
After more than 30 years as a dietitian and food & nutrition consultant, it feels like the right time to bring women’s health and wellbeing to the forefront. You can now find me consulting at In Balance, Caringbah.
I’ve spent decades helping brands and organisations talk about food — now I want to sit across from women and help them feel well in their own bodies.
If you’re navigating peri/menopause, feeling low in energy, training for an event, recovering from injury or illness — or simply wanting clarity and confidence around food — nutrition can be the missing piece.
My approach is practical, evidence-based and personal. With degrees in psychology, nutrition & dietetics and business, plus post-graduate studies in sports and culinary nutrition, I look at the whole picture — your history, habits, lifestyle and relationship with food. No rigid prescriptions. Just realistic strategies that fit your life — and maybe even help you rediscover joy in food.
✨ 1:1 consults at In Balance, Caringbah — Fridays (plus selected evenings)
✨ Telehealth — Australia wide
✨ Corporate & culinary nutrition consulting available
✨ Nutrition education programs coming soon
I’d love to work alongside the beautiful In Balance team to complement your yoga, Pilates and massage with tailored nutrition support.
A heartfelt thank you to Sammy Pagano at In Balance for backing this vision. When women support women, powerful things happen!

Why Martial Arts Changed the Way I See Nutrition
I didn’t come to sports nutrition from a textbook. I came to it from the mat.
Training in Taekwondo as an adult — grading, sparring, pushing through injuries, managing recovery — completely changed how I understand food. It’s one thing to prescribe carbohydrate timing or protein targets. It’s another to feel what happens when you get it wrong.
Martial arts taught me discipline, yes — but more importantly, it taught me respect for the body. There are days when you feel strong and sharp. There are days when you feel flat, heavy, under-fuelled or depleted. Nutrition is often the quiet difference.
As a dietitian, black belt and mum of teenage boys who surf and train hard, I see how powerful practical sports nutrition can be - not extreme, not obsessive, just strategic and sustainable. Enough fuel. Enough protein. Smart recovery. Hydration that actually matches output.
But beyond performance, martial arts deepened my belief in food as support — not punishment. Food isn’t about shrinking your body. It’s about strengthening it.
That philosophy now runs through all my work — whether I’m supporting a female martial artists during peri-menopause, or helping someone rebuilding after injury.
We had such a great session down at James Sheedy Personal Defence Studio with a group of 20+ female martial artists from white belt up to 3rd degree blackbelts, all gathered together to discuss the challenges with training, Nutrition FAQ and the importance of fuelling CHO and Protein around your training and grading schedules!
Strength looks different at every stage of life. Nutrition helps you meet it.

Future of Food: Nutrition Reimagined at SXSW Sydney
What a day.
On October 13 2025, I had the privilege of presenting on the Future of Food: Nutrition Reimagined panel on Day 1 of SXSW Sydney alongside the brilliant Emma Stirling, Dr Flavia Fayet-Moore and Dr Joanna McMillan.
Together we explored what’s next for food and nutrition — by looking both backwards and forwards.
We spoke about how history can guide us as we move toward 2050. How culinary nutrition brings science back into the kitchen. How gastrophysics is reshaping the way we understand flavour and perception.
We touched on space nutrition, 3D food printing, AI in personalised nutrition, digital twins, lifestyle medicine and the realities of planetary health. Even insects had their moment!
But one theme kept surfacing: conviviality and commensality. The simple, powerful act of eating together. In a world of tech, data and innovation, the human connection around food still matters most.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, asked thoughtful questions and stayed curious. The future of food is bold, complex and evolving — but it is also deeply human.

Studying culinary nutrition in Roma!
The ACU Rome Crew
A Roman Chapter I’ll Never Forget
Studying Culinary Nutrition in Rome! What could be better. I had the absolute privilege of spending several weeks on campus at Australian Catholic University Rome as part of the Advanced Certificate in Culinary Nutrition.
It was a deep dive into Italian food culture, history and gastrophysics — blended with true experiential learning. Wine and cheese tastings. Regional exploration. Long-table conversations. Learning through flavour, place and story.
Living and studying in Monteverde and wandering through Trastevere each day — absorbing the language, the markets, the rhythm of la dolce vita — was something I will never forget. It was, quite honestly, one of the best few weeks of my life.
Grateful to Emma Stirling, Sharon Croxford and my fellow students for such an unforgettable experience.
