Hi, I’m Anna
I’m a New Zealand Registered Clinical Nutritionist (CNA) specialising in sports and performance nutrition. I’m based in Auckland and work with clients through virtual consultations.
I support active people and recreational athletes who want their nutrition to support training, recovery, performance, and long-term health.
I’m a mum, wife, and in midlife myself, balancing work, family, training, and recovery. That lived experience shapes how I approach nutrition just as much as my clinical training. I understand what it’s like to want to feel strong, energised, and capable while life is full and time is limited.
Alongside performance nutrition, my work is grounded in clinical nutrition and takes a whole-body view of health and wellbeing, not just training performance. My approach remains practical and focused on supporting sustainable performance.
I have a strong interest in metabolic health and supporting performance now while protecting long-term health for your future.
My aim is always to simplify nutrition so you feel informed, capable, and supported rather than overwhelmed.
I am registered with Clinical Nutritionists Aotearoa NZ Inc, which is recognised by:
Southern Cross Health Insurance, NIB Health Insurance, and Accuro Health Insurance.
