Richard has an extensive history with food and nutrition and is the founder of Darwin Dietitians.

He originally trained as a Chef before studying to become a Dietitian. He now combines these skills to provide clients with very tasty menu options when tailoring their personal meal plan.

Prior to moving to Darwin, Richard worked in two of Australia’s leading health retreats, sharing his insights and concepts that some described as ‘life changing’.

His work at Darwin Dietitians includes seeing clients in one-on-one, holistic consultations where he considers your eating and activity patterns. Consultations also include insight into your body composition using InBody 720 composition analysis.
