I joined CCCU as a PhD candidate and part-time instructor in October 2013. After working on research projects commissioned by the International Olympic Committee and World Anti-Doping Agency at the University of Birmingham in 2017-18, I was appointed Senior Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology in June 2019.
My research examines the role of the mind in the effectiveness of performance enhancing substances and the psychological antecedents of substance use behaviour. With a background in psychology and sport science, alongside strong interests in both physiology and neurobiology, I examine my research from an interdisciplinary perspective.
