Renee’s love of sports started early; growing up doing gymnastics, athletics, playing netball and field hockey. It was seeing a sports dietitan after reaching state level in field hockey that sparked her interest in the profession.  With a love of all things sport and food, a career in sports nutrition was the natural progression.

Renee graduated from the University of Canberra in 2009 and quickly followed up with the International Olympic Committee’s Sports Nutrition diploma. Most recently she put her knowledge into practice where she worked tirelessly to ensure Andrew Abrahams was well fed in achieving his World Record ‘million metre row’.

Now as an avid runner she has developed a personal interest in nutrition for endurance events and enjoys helping other athletes achieve their sporting goals through optimising nutrition. 

Renee is also a specialist gastro-health dietitian – she has worked in one of Brisbane’s largest hospitals for several years, and is particularly proficient at solving issues that come along with inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and food intolerances. 

Renee works at Health Place on James Street, Fortitude Valley under the Apple To Zucchinni brand.
