Double UTMB Winning Nutritionist and Sports Scientist.
I help endurance and ultra-endurance athletes, teams, and organisations improve performance through applied sports science, performance nutrition, physiological testing, data analysis, race planning and strategy. My approach is grounded in science, research, and experience working with elite and world-class athletes.

Integrated Performance Science and Nutrition for Elite athletes, teams and organisations
Athletes I work with have won UTMB, CCC, OCC, Western States, and other top positions in races globally. Ten years of applied practice and 25 years as a university academic sit behind that. In 2025, I was the sports scientist and nutritionist to both the men's and women's UTMB champions. My PhD research investigates metabolism and performance in ultra-endurance. Over the past 20 years, I've also completed 94 ultramarathons, giving me a rich source of research and testing. I work one-to-one with individual athletes, teams, and organisations on performance strategy, testing programmes, education, workshops and training camps.
