About Me
Education
I am interested in all things related to cardiovascular disease and sedentary behaviors, from the development of novel non-invasive methods to laboratory studies investigating cardiovascular responses to acute bouts of sedentary behavior using those non-invasive methods, and ultimately to research synthesis that may inform the research area going forward. I am particularly interested in central and peripheral vascular responses to acute bouts of sedentary behavior and how repeated bouts of sedentary behavior may ultimately contribute to increased cardiovascular risk in later life.
Career Goals
- Current - Post Doc, Cardiometabolic Lab (CML), University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
- 2022 - PhD, Applied Sport and Exercise Sciences, University of Gloucestershire
- 2018 - BSc (Hons), Sport and Exercise Sciences, University of Gloucestershire
- 2021 - University of Gloucestershire Health, Life Sciences, Sport, and Wellbeing Research Symposium – Best Presentation
- 2020 - University of Gloucestershire, ‘Three Minute Thesis’ Winner
- Sedentary behavior and cardiometabolic health
- Theory and application of quantitative research synthesis
- Development and application of non-invasive cardiovascular methodologies

Career Goals
- Medium-term: Build and lead a activity behavior and cardiometabolic research laboratory at a research intensive institution
- To produce meaningful, high-quality research that helps to inform public health policy
- To develop and foster practical tools for the setup and management of research laboratories
- Longer-term: University administration
