What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can provide evidence-based nutrition counselling, create educational content, and support community or clinical wellness programs while growing professionally.

I am a nutritionist with a B.Sc. in Nutrition and Dietetics and hands-on experience in clinical, educational, and hospitality settings. I combine evidence-based nutritional expertise with clear communication, content creation, and social media savvy to educate patients, students, and clients about healthy eating and disease management.

During clinical and internship roles I conducted ward rounds, provided personalized nutrition counselling, prepared therapeutic meals, and produced customized juice blends; as an NYSC food and nutrition tutor I developed lesson plans and assessed learners, while hospitality experience improved my client relations and event-service skills.
