What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my clinical skills in a supportive environment, focusing on patient education and holistic care.

I am a Registered Dietitian with over three years of experience in clinical nutrition and dietetics. My postgraduate degree has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide personalized diet planning and nutritional assessments for patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and eating disorders. I am passionate about patient-centered counseling and have a proven track record of collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to enhance patient recovery and management.

In my current role as a Specialist Eating Disorder Dietitian at Priory Hospital, I provide specialized care for patients with complex eating disorders. I conduct comprehensive nutritional assessments and develop tailored care plans that address both physical and psychological aspects of recovery. My experience also includes freelance practice, where I have successfully guided diverse communities in achieving their health goals through personalized nutrition plans and education.

Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to continuous learning and professional development, attending various seminars and workshops to stay updated on the latest nutrition trends and research. I believe in the power of effective communication and teamwork to empower patients and improve their relationships with food.
