My love of good food started with my wonderful parents, who prioritised making dinners for the whole family to enjoy together. From a young age I was in dance, which propelled my understanding of the relationship between my body and food, especially at University for my Degree. The better I ate, the more energy I had to move. Dance also taught me an incredible amount of discipline. I learned the benefits of regularly moving my body, as well as the importance of rest - or rather, the damage that can occur from an absence of it.

My passion for the environment was ignited while volunteering at a turtle refuge in Ostional, Costa Rica. The tremendous amount of ocean plastics was truly astonishing. It demonstrated the consequences of our senseless actions and inspires me to be a better person every day. Let's find a way to tread lightly - and leave nothing but footprints - together.
