Hi, I’m Anna!

Originally from the Netherlands, I moved to beautiful New Zealand 20 years ago to build a life with my Kiwi husband. One of our greatest adventures was sailing here together—a journey that remains close to my heart. These days, we’re raising two energetic boys who share our love of sailing and life on the water. When I’m not cheering them on at their sporting events, I’m usually in the garden, exploring nature on long walks, or prioritizing my wellness with strength training at the local gym.

My professional journey began in public health, where I spent 25 years working as a radiation therapist and radiographer. Over time, I discovered the transformative power of good nutrition, movement, and strength training in my own life, which inspired me to help others make lasting, healthy changes. While my primary focus now is nutrition, I continue to support women’s health in a part-time role as a radiographer with BreastScreen New Zealand—something I remain deeply passionate about.

As a nutritionist, I believe optimal health, well-being, and performance aren’t about restrictive diets or chasing perfection. They come from mindset shifts and small, sustainable changes that work with your lifestyle. Consistency is the key to lasting success, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

True success isn’t just about weight loss—it’s about learning how to make changes you can live with for life. By helping you reshape your mindset around food, exercise, and self-care, I empower you to build habits that feel natural and achievable.

Having faced my own challenges—pregnancy, body changes, weight gain, and the demands of a busy family life—I know firsthand how difficult it can be to prioritize your health. That’s why I offer practical, realistic solutions tailored to your lifestyle. I also encourage involving your partner or family, as shared experiences often lead to greater success and lasting results.

Whether your goals involve weight loss, weight gain, strength building, body recomposition, sports performance, or simply boosting your energy and well-being, I’ll create a plan that works for you. My mission is to empower both women and men to take charge of their health, build confidence, and feel strong from the inside out.

You can trust that I’ll take the time to understand your journey and create a personalized strategy that’s both achievable and effective. And when needed, I’m happy to collaborate with other health professionals to help you reach your vision of success.

Let’s take the first step toward a healthier, stronger, and more balanced life—together.
