About Me

I'm a Registered Associate Nutritionist, yoga teacher, and health coach with a PhD in Cell Biology. I’ve spent over 15 years working in the pharmaceutical industry, monitoring the safety of approved medicines. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me on the trails or mountains—or out walking my dog.

I’m endlessly curious about what it really means to live a healthy, happy life.

I first found the world of “wellness” in 2017, when I left my full-time corporate role and travelled to India to complete my yoga teacher training. Later, I trained as a health coach—and began to notice a growing trend: a lot of people were giving advice or treating conditions they weren’t qualified to handle.

That sparked a deeper question: What does the evidence actually say?

I went on to complete a Master’s in Clinical Nutrition, with a focus on nutrition for disease prevention. I studied research design, evidence-based health, and developed a particular interest in how diet, gut health, and cognitive decline are connected—especially as we age.

Then came the pandemic... and is it just me, or is that when the internet truly lost the plot?

Suddenly, wellness advice online became louder, more confident—and more chaotic. A mix of charismatic personalities, overconfidence, and partial information flooded the space. Pseudoscience and misinformation aren’t new, but in the last 5–10 years, our everyday exposure to them has exploded.

It’s become harder than ever to know who or what to trust.

Health and wellbeing are nuanced. Without a background in the subject—or the ability to interpret data—it can be overwhelming to separate fact from noise.

The Lowdown on The Well Digest

The Well Digest is an evidence-based hub and newsletter for all things health and wellbeing. It’s a space for clear, science-backed insights—designed to help you cut through the noise and feel more informed, not more confused.

I write about nutrition, movement, yoga, meditation, and general wellbeing. I also curate resources from experts I trust—people who know far more about specific topics than I do.
