I first discovered naturopathy when I was a teenager. Having suffered with poor health for most of my life, my mother took me to see my first naturopath when I was 17. I was fascinated and decided then, I was going to be a Naturopath. It took me 19 years to realise my dream, but it was worth the wait!
I graduated from Wellpark College of Natural Therapies, in Auckland, firstly with a Diploma of Therapeutic Massage in 2002. I then continued my studies to achieve Diplomas of Naturopathy and Herbal Medicine, in 2005.
I am a member of the South Pacific Association of Natural Therapists (SPANT) and the New Zealand Association of Medical Herbalists (NZAMH). These associations exist to promote the safe practice of naturopathy and herbal medicine in New Zealand.
I am happily married to Grant who works in the marine industry. Together we have two beautiful preschoolers, Nicole and Daniel.
