About Me

Hi there, I’m Miranda,
a functional nutritionist, certified practitioner, educator, and writer.

For over five years, I’ve worked with individuals, communities, and global audiences to improve health through evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle strategies. My work sits at the intersection of clinical practice, education, and communication, whether I’m supporting clients one-on-one, designing personalised meal plans, leading workshops, or creating evidence-based content for leading voices in the field.

I specialise in supporting complex, chronic health concerns, including gut health, hormone imbalances, immune dysfunction, food sensitivities, toxin exposure, and chronic stress.

I believe nutrition is one of the most powerful tools we have to shape our health. We eat multiple times a day, every day, and each meal is an opportunity to support our biology, resilience, and long-term wellbeing.

My Approach to Functional Nutrition

My work is rooted in functional medicine, a science-based approach that looks beyond symptoms to identify and address root causes of imbalance.

I combine:

• Personalised nutrition and lifestyle strategies
• Functional testing and clinical insight
• Practical, sustainable tools for everyday life

Whether you’re working with me through one-on-one functional nutrition consultations or tailored meal planning support, my goal is to make nutrition feel clear, supportive, and realistic, not restrictive or overwhelming. 

Clinical Experience & Training

A key part of my professional training was completing my supervised clinical hours at Dr. Kara Fitzgerald’s Functional Medicine & Longevity Clinic.

There, I worked alongside Dr. Kara Fitzgerald and a multidisciplinary team of medical and naturopathic doctors, as well as experienced nutritionists.

This experience strengthened my ability to:

• Work with complex, multi-system health conditions
• Apply functional medicine testing and interpretation
• Translate advanced protocols into clear, actionable plans

It also reinforced something I carry into all my work today: the importance of collaborative, patient-centred care.

Education, Workshops & Writing

Beyond clinical practice, I work with organisations, brands, and thought leaders to deliver high-quality nutrition education at scale.

This includes:

• Workshops and corporate wellness programmes designed to support teams and communities
• Expert nutrition writing and content strategy for clinicians and health platforms

In an age of AI and information overload, I care deeply about ensuring that health information remains accurate, nuanced, and genuinely helpful.

A Personal Philosophy

My background in both nutrition and communication shapes everything I do.

I believe that knowledge alone isn’t enough: what matters is how we translate it into daily life. My work is about helping people bridge that gap, whether through personalised support, structured plans, or clear, engaging education.

Eating well is an act of self-love and social responsibility – to ourselves, our loved ones and our community.
