Ever since I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by the power of food, not just as fuel, but as a way to nurture and transform lives. This curiosity grew into a passion, leading me to earn my Master’s in Nutrition Communication from Toronto Metropolitan University and gain hands-on experience in Canada at Etobicoke General Hospital, The Sleeve Clinic, and Caroline Family Health Team. I’ve been fortunate to guide people through some of the most meaningful moments in their lives, whether supporting bariatric surgery patients, helping athletes reach peak performance, or empowering individuals to achieve sustainable weight management and heal their relationship with food. My work isn’t just about calories or macros; it’s about understanding each person’s story, culture, and lifestyle, and creating practical, culturally sensitive nutrition plans that fit seamlessly into their lives. As a Canadian-trained RD and DHA-licensed Dietitian, I bring my expertise to the UAE to help clients achieve lasting health and wellness without giving up the foods and traditions they love. My mission is simple: turn evidence-based nutrition into meaningful, sustainable change; one habit, one bite, and one small victory at a time.
