My Story

From the Boardroom
to the Kitchen

I spent years in the corporate world, climbing the career ladder while quietly watching my relationship with food — and the food relationships of those around me — slowly unravel. Convenience food, stress eating, and a profound disconnection from where our meals came from had become the norm.

The turning point came when I began studying culinary medicine: the science of using food as a tool for genuine health. What I discovered changed everything. I trained as a Nutrition Coach, a Culinary Medicine Coach, and a Menopause Coach — and I became a Mental Health First Aider along the way.

Today, Twiddle Food is my life's work. I run hands-on, science-backed workshops from Sheffield that help individuals, families, and organisations fall back in love with cooking — and understand just how powerful the right food choices can be.

My Approach

A Philosophy Built on Joy

Too many people approach food with guilt, anxiety, or boredom. My entire approach is built on dismantling that. Cooking should feel like a superpower, not a chore.

I combine the rigour of nutritional science with the warmth of genuine hospitality. Every class I run is a safe space — judgement-free, accessible, and genuinely fun. I meet you where you are, not where you think you should be.

Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced home cook, I promise you'll leave every session with new knowledge, new skills, and a renewed love of the kitchen.
