Nita Lakhani

Nita Lakhani’s journey with an eating disorder (ED) began when she was just 12 years old, and persisted throughout her teenage and young adult years. Despite this, and additional health-related challenges, Nita pursued a career in pharmacy, working in diverse practice settings.

In 2017, Nita pursued graduate studies in Design for Health at OCAD University. Her final project involved developing a proposal for a dance/movement program for individuals affected by EDs in collaboration with Body Brave. As a 2020 graduate of the Design for Health program, Nita is interested in improving healthcare experiences, particularly for the ED population.
