Why work with me?

I am a New Zealand Registered dietitian who has been working in the media for over a decade. I have given numerous interviews across a range of mediums (print, online, radio and TV) and have acted as the nutrition advisor and guest presenter on a number of TV shows. I have also written many articles and blogs, in addition to writing copy for websites. Over the years, and combined with my background as a food industry consultant, I have also worked as a spokesperson and ambassador for some well-known Kiwi brands to support them during their media launches.

During my time in the media, I’ve learnt quite a bit about what works (and doesn’t!). I’m keen to share my knowledge with you and to provide you with the support and encouragement you need to nail your next interview. Together, we can help change the tide of nutrition messaging in the media.

How will I help you become media-savvy?

It can be daunting doing your first (or even 20th!) media interview. By working with me, I will help to give you the confidence you need to handle media requests and interviews skilfully and professionally. I will work with you by providing the support, training and encouragement you need to ensure your next interview is a success.

During our sessions, I will help you to:

  • Make a good impression

  • Learn the importance of body language

  • Craft memorable key messages and soundbites

  • Discover techniques for calming your nerves,

  • Learn strategies for handling difficult questions,

I will also be available to peer-review your media responses and to provide feedback ahead of an upcoming interview.

Once your interview has been completed, we can review the content together. We will determine what has worked well and what/if any further refinements we can make to ensure that your next interview is just as, or even more, successful than the last.
