Our Staff

With a background in practice management and e-commerce for health and wellness businesses, Emily brings a wealth of experience to the role. Passionate about supporting practitioners, she’s here to help members get the most out of their AKA experience — whether that’s navigating membership, maximizing benefits, or simply offering support when needed.

Emily is also currently studying Counselling and is trained in Spinal Energetics and Reiki, keeping her closely connected to the wellness industry — both as a practitioner and as a professional in administrative management.

Katie has been an AKA member since 2000 and has been practising as a professional kinesiologist in multi-disciplinary clinics since 2001. With a passion for holistic health and herbal medicine, she completed a Certificate of Health and Nutrition before taking a Touch For Health class which, in turn, led her to studying a variety of kinesiology streams via the workshop model and a diploma in Health Science (Holistic Kinesiology). Katie is a Level 5 Kinesiology Professional Practitioner.

Katie took on the freelance role of Editor of In Touch, the AKA quarterly member-only magazine, in January 2015. In this role, she sources, proof-reads and edits articles, advertisements, case studies, reports, graphics and photos. She liaises with authors, as well as the Management Committee, sub-committee members, office staff, graphic artist and printer to produce a publication that informs and connects AKA members Australia wide.

Her other interests include growing and cooking organic food, reading, movies, walking, swimming and nature. Katie has been practising yoga and meditation for 30 years. With a previous career in fashion design, in her spare time she also enjoys sewing.

Katie works remotely on a freelance basis.
