What do all those letters after your name mean?

PNL1 means that I am a certified nutritionist!

What brought you to Health Quest?

I strongly believe that healthy food can improve everyone's life. I want to help people on this journey and show them that eating well doesn't mean giving up the foods we love! Health Quest is an incredible place that allows me to do just that!

What does innovation mean for you and your practice?

Innovation can mean a lot of different things in the food world. For me, it means changing the perception of healthy eating through new and creative ways! 

What are some recent developments in your field that you are most excited about?

We are finally witnessing mainstream attention focused on the state of our food system. With this increased awareness, there is a greater possibility of seeing the necessary changes that will help people not only understand what is in their food but also encourage changes in how large food companies operate. This could lead to easier access to better nutrition!

What media (books, films, TV etc.) do find most inspirational?

I love cooking, and I'm especially a fan of MasterChef and MasterChef Jr.! Watching everyday people create incredible dishes is truly inspiring. It’s amazing to see kids under 12 prepare five-star meals, showcasing that anyone, no matter their age, can achieve remarkable things, especially when it comes to something they are passionate about.

What does good self-care look like for you?

My personal self-care is a work in progress! Right now, I feel my best when I consistently practice yoga, take walks in the woods, carve out time to read the books I enjoy, and spend time with my family. Sometimes, it can be challenging to make time for these activities, and "life" often gets in the way. However, I remind myself that these practices help me perform at my best and maintain my happiness and well-being.
