Growing up in the country and playing various sports, I look back and realise the crucial need for more accessible education on nutrition. Understanding the importance of food and ensuring adequate intake is vital for success and longevity. That’s why my mission with Puzzle Performance is to provide a range of services which can inspire high performers at all ages to learn more about what their body needs to thrive!
"To inspire and support individuals in achieving lasting success and enjoyment in their chosen sport or field"
My name is Brooke, and I am an accredited practicing dietitian, sports dietitian, and sub-elite athlete. I have extensive experience in a variety of sports, with running being my current passion.
