As someone who has a hard time making nutrition a priority, I was delighted to encounter Bindi. Her nutrition talks were personal and fun. She has vast knowledge of all aspects of nutrition and was able to tailor her discussion to make the most impact. She was able to engage all participants and keep the discussion on task. She is also very up-to-date on the “newest” advancement and changes in her field, so you can be sure you’re getting cutting edge information. Her passion for making you the best person you can be is obvious. She’s a true delight.
Bindi brings a wonderful presence to her nutrition talks, and a wealth of knowledge. She is always mindful of her audience, and tailors her discussions to our needs, and find out information when asked, as well as leading us to other sources to complement her advice. Such a pleasure to know her - you'll feel smarter when you do!
