In my early twenties I was constantly exhausted, bloated, gaining weight despite eating well, and catching every illness going around. I knew something was not right. Then came the diagnosis that changed everything: papillary thyroid cancer, already spread to my lymph nodes. After surgery to remove my thyroid, I was handed a basic information sheet and sent on my way.

​

I was left with questions nobody could answer. How do you support a body that has lost an organ responsible for metabolism, energy, hormones, and digestion? That gap between what I had been through and the care I received sparked something in me.

​

That search for answers became a career. I enrolled in a Bachelor of Health Science in Clinical Nutritional Medicine at Endeavour College of Natural Health in Perth and immersed myself in understanding how food, nutrients, lifestyle, and the body's systems work together. During my studies I developed a deep clinical interest in thyroid health, gut function, hormones, and functional pathology, areas that continue to shape my practice today.

​

Today, Perth Nutrition & Natural Health was built from the experience of being a patient who felt confused, unsupported, and desperate for answers. My goal is to provide the support I wish I had received all those years ago.
