Leonie Tuxhorn

Leonie is a postgraduate student in MRes Behavioural Sciences, who started working with Think through Nutrition through an university-based internship module during her undergraduate studies. Since starting her academic journey, a combined passion for nutrition, health behaviour and brain health gradually crystallised, which led to the decision to initiate the learning journey with Think through Nutrition. 

In addition, Leonie has been continually interested in exploring methods and tools to enable behaviour change across different communities such as through her internship with Starcatchers, an Early-years arts and creative education charity, as well as her coaching certification with Know You More. 

Next to her professional development, Leonie is leading a food pantry for students in her university. This passion for social welfare, public health and food waste reduction reflects in her personal interests of spending time in the outdoors, gardening as well as cooking and baking.
