Hey, I'm SJ. I’m really happy to meet you. I'm a performance and nutrition coach specialising in building personalised, evidence-based systems for athletes competing in emerging sports. As a competitor myself, I deeply understand the challenges of performing on national and international stages, and the intensity of balancing heavy training load alongside part and full time work. I believe that individuals in transition with the sports they love have the support they need to reach their full potential. That might look like the juvenile athlete making the decision to focus on building a sporting career, the aspiring master's competitor that wants to begin testing themselves for the first time, or the professional looking to elevate their profile in pursuit of World level achievement. I'm in flow state applying personalized body composition management systems for both meeting competitive bracket criteria or reach personal performance goals, or optimising programs that fuel explosivity, strength, endurance, rapid decision making, and mental fortidude. As well as competing most of my life, I've delved deep into understanding the science of performance. I hold a both a BSc in Pharmacology and a PhD from the Institute of Cellular Medicine at Newcastle University, where my research focus was on developing and applying new diagnostic techniques that can help us understand the way energy systems work in our bodies, how we can best optimise them day to day, and put systems in place to work with the unexpected.

BSc., PhD.
