Jess experience working with both athletes and non-athletes, supporting clients across areas such as performance nutrition, weight management and chronic disease management.

She is passionate about helping people achieve their health and performance goals in a way that is practical, sustainable and tailored to you.

Her interest in nutrition is strongly influenced by a lifelong involvement in sport, including athletics, swimming and field hockey.
