Our Team

Robin Anderson

As part owner of Revive Wellness Inc, as well as a registered Dietitian, Robin is invested in her clients. Spending most of her 20 years experience in private practice, she has empowered countless clients to live with energy, vitality and health!

Besides her B.Sc. in foods and nutrition, Robin also holds certificates in adult education, solution-focused counselling, child and adolescent obesity and motivational interviewing. She is certified in Emotional Brain Training (EBT), a unique solution to emotional, mindless and stress eating.

She writes about emotional eating on our blog, where she is very candid about her own life. Hey, dietitians crave cookies too!

Cookies, chocolate and pina coladas are part of the balanced lifestyle Robin maintains. She balances the treats with challenging herself at the gym and hiking in the River Valley. She’s passionate about the role nutrition plays in sport performance, working with many athletes to optimize their training and performance.  Edmonton Oilers Hockey club.

Loreen Wales

Loreen enjoys inspiring people to use wholesome eating to get the maximum out of life!

As part owner of Revive, her enthusiasm is evident. She brings 15 years of experience to Revive and has witnessed the detrimental effects poor eating has on health.

This inspired her to focus her practice on keeping people happy, healthy and full of life!  And yes this can include eating chocolate and drinking wine!

Whether Loreen is working with corporations, helping them optimize their employees’ health and wellness, working one on one with people or sharing her tips on TV, she is committed to making a difference in each life she embraces.

When she’s not inspiring her clients, Loreen explores life with her husband and two young children. She loves the outdoors and enjoys exploring new activities with her family. She never thought she’d see herself running a half marathon or downhill skiing but she has learned she is not too old to try something new!

Callie Derksen

Callie is the public relations and marketing manager.

She has an arts degree in Sociology and Psychology from the University of Alberta, as well as a public relations diploma from Grant MacEwan. What she learned from all this schooling, was that she loves creativity and variety!

On top of managing the social media accounts, blog, website, newsletter and partnerships, she is a communications consultant to the food, health and wellness industry.

Callie loves to experiment in the kitchen and gravitates towards vegetarian recipes for not only the health benefits, but the uniqueness and variety. This lifestyle keeps her creative in the kitchen and has blossomed into something she’s passionate about.

Danika Amyotte

Danika is the nutrition content coordinator, or as she likes to be called- Nutritionista!

She is a health and fitness enthusiast, which led to an undergrad degree in nutrition and food science with a minor in physical activity.

What you feed your body and mind (foods, exercise, thoughts and people) will change the way you look. More importantly it will change the way you feel!

This belief drives Danika’s life daily. She reads personal development books, stays active at the gym and outdoors, eats for energy and spends as much time as possible with family and friends.

With this penchant for a healthy lifestyle, and being proactive vs. reactive, Danika will pursue her M.PH. in health promotion.

Melanie Jaques

Through her 11 years as a dietitian, Melanie developed a passion for helping others improve their relationship with food and their body.

The focus of her nutrition coaching is thus weight management, emotional eating, body image and eating disorders.

She is certified in Emotional Brain Training; holds her restricted activity practice permit for working with people living with eating disorders/disordered eating; and is currently pursuing certification in Intuitive Eating.

This combination of skills allows Melanie to be flexible in her approach to best support her clients.
In her spare time, Melanie loves to be creative however she can. It may be knitting, sewing or playing in her garden.

Kelsey Masciola

Kelsey is just as passionate about nutrition as she is about fitness! She not only spends a lot of her spare time with the crossfit community, she also plays fastball at the college and national level and remains active in Olympic weightlifting.

With a minor in physical activity, it’s no wonder her focus is on sports nutrition! She loves working with athletes to help them perform their best.

Chronic disease, pediatrics and food allergies are other areas she enjoys counselling clients in. Having a type 1 diabetic brother, she learned at a young age how nutrition affects people’s lives. She continues to volunteer at the Easter Seals camp horizon for children with type 1 diabetes.

Ricky Ng

Having previosuly interned with Revive, Ricky recently joined the team as a dietitian with a focus on sports nutrition.

He believes in nutrition as keys to maximizing performance and enhancing recovery.

Currently in year 1 of the International Olympics Committee Diploma, Ricky is striving to complete an M.Sc. in sports nutrition with the IOC.

A cool thing about Ricky? He will never say no to trying something new!

Nicky Bennett

Nicky’s passion for working in the field of disease prevention vs. treatment led her to joining the Revive Team. She believes that positive life style changes have significant impact on the prevention of chronic diseases and she empowers clients to create these changes.

Having grown up with a wheat allergy, Nicky understands the impact allergies can have not only on diet, but also on social life. She helps make living with allergies easier.

Further, she loves learning about how food impacts both the inside and outside of the body. When in the kitchen she is not only creating delicious new recipes for meals, but also likes creating natural beauty products.

Out of the kitchen you will find Nicky mountain biking, hiking or camping with her friends and husband.  Or you may see her at the local dog parks as its one of her favorite places to visit with her growing puppy!
