I have been actively involved in sport my whole life and understand how important training, nutrition and health have on individual performance outcomes. I can support clients in all manner of sport and health nutrition. My expertise is is adventure sports, including endurance racing, climbing, paddling and mountain biking. 

Through a number of diverse careers including working as a senior chef-de-partie in two restaurant kitchens I have become proficient in recipe development for health and fitness. In my career as an adventure sports coach I have coached and supported a variety of athletes in skill and holistic development in paddlesports, mountain biking and climbing. 

I am passionate about education and research informed practice, choosing to teach secondary school PE focusing on applied sport science and nutrition programmes taught in two Devon schools. 

I am currently a PhD Scholar at the University of St Mark and St John (Marjon) researching the occupational fitness standards in commercial divers. There is scope within the project to explore the nutritional health impact on fitness testing and work at depth. Additionally, this project is looking at wellbeing factors within the industry and how both fitness and nutrition impact on cognitive performance and mental health.
