Exercise physiologist and nutritionist by training, medical scientist by trade. Having spent a career working with the way the body works and having successfully grown a clinical research company from scratch, I want to share what I've learned about human performance along the way.

​

I initially qualified with an undergrad degree in Physiology, Sports Science & Nutrition from the University of Glasgow before embarking on a career in oncology and neurology research. For many years I managed cancer clinical research trials before starting my company Caritas Neuro Solutions which specialises in all things mind and brain.

​

I spent all of my spare time playing sports, including field hockey, running, shinty, tennis, swimming, cycling and roaming the hills with my dog Sebastian.

​

I was drawn to yoga initially as a complimentary activity to running but soon realised the value of the practice ran so much deeper and connected in nicely with my work.

​

I completed my 200 hours Yoga Teacher Training in Yin / Yang Yoga under the school of Hot Yoga Edinburgh in 2022 and registered with the Yoga Alliance. Along the way I have also qualified in life coaching (Dawn Breslin's Harmonising), Cognitivie Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Scottish Mental Health First Aid. Therefore I have a well rounded education in wellbeing and hope to be able to share my learnings with others and to improve our collective health.
