Originally from Innisfail, Hayley spent over six years in Brisbane to live and complete her studies, before deciding to make her way back to the FNQ humidity.
Hayley is a hard-working and empathetic dietitian who strives to empower, guide and educate clients through their health care needs and goals. She acknowledges that the world of food and nutrition can be a confusing and misleading place and is here to help you navigate your way through it!
She is a religious gym goer and spends most of her free time catching up with friends and family, going on long road trips and attending local events (rodeos, races). With an Italian heritage, there is no shortage of pizza, carbonara or Bolognese in her diet (she is convinced that at least 95% of her blood is made up of Bolognese sauce). Hayley is a big advocate for viewing food as more than merely a source of nutrition, but as a source of happiness and enjoyment and makes it her mission to help you achieve your goals, without completely removing your favourite foods.
Hayley is proud to be part of the Health Management team and is looking forward to helping you get on track to a happier and healthier lifestyle through diet!
