Biography I studied my undergraduate (BSc. Sport and Exercise Science) and completed my MSc. Exercise Physiology at Loughborough University. Following this I was a technical officer at University of Hertfordshire before starting my PhD there. In 2019 I became an Associate Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Science at Middlesex University and completed my PhD titled Physiological and Thermoregulatory demands of Epée Fencing in 2022. In 2023 I was awarded the BASES Prof Edward Winter Early Career Researcher Award.
Teaching I am module leader for Level 5 Applied Performance Analysis, Level 6 Dissertation, Level 6 Advanced Physiology. I am also part of the teaching team for Level 4 and 5 physiology modules, and Level 5 research methods. I also conducting teaching on the MSc. Sport Performance Analysis. I also supervise both undergraduate and postgraduate students (both MSc and PhD).
