GET TO KNOW MADDIE
Maddie is passionate about helping clients and athletes improve their relationship with food and empower them to make food choices that promote health, performance and most importantly enjoyment! Her passion for Sports Nutrition began in her late teens, when she began competing as a long distance and track runner for Deakin University and Richmond Harriers.
During this time, she experienced the all too common trap of over exercising and under fueling. After receiving support and advice from a Sports Dietitian, she discovered the impact that improving your relationship with food and adequate fueling can have on not only performance but overall quality of life.
She has gained experience in the sporting sector working for multiple sporting teams including the AFL team Geelong Cats.
Outside of her work as a dietitian, Maddie enjoys burning up the local running trails, exploring new hiking trails, socializing with friends, attending concerts, and traveling
