What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can apply evidence-based clinical nutrition, build individualized plans, and provide consistent client follow-up—while continuing to grow through research and multidisciplinary collaboration.

I am a qualified Dietitian–Nutritionist with scientific training in clinical nutrition and hands-on experience through hospital practice, where I supported clinical monitoring, created and tracked individualized nutrition plans, and collaborated with medical and nursing staff for conditions such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular issues, and cancer.

Today, I also work as a freelance online nutrition coach, delivering ongoing counseling through tools like Zoom and Viber to help clients with weight loss and habit improvement—through continuous support and re-evaluation. In parallel, I contribute to research as a member of a clinical nutrition team, including data collection and management for projects related to celiac disease and other inflammatory conditions.
