What do you like about your job?
I like locum work for the flexibility and the experience you can gain in a wide variety of areas.

Personal achievements within your role?
As a dietitian, I think my best achievements have included getting published in a peer reviewed journal, and also the knowledge that you have impacted someone’s life for better after a good counselling session, and after seeing positive results from nutritional interventions.

How do you unwind from work?
Music, playing guitar, singing, cooking and all kinds of sport including swimming, yoga, running and dancing.
