Making sport and movement meaningful and POSSIBLE for more people
A different perspective on performance
Performance is not only about winning. Health is not only about motivation.
Both are shaped by culture, access, relationships, environment and the opportunities people are given.
That is where my work begins: connecting ideas and shaping opportunities in and through sport and exercise.
I support individuals and organisations to think across boundaries that are too often kept separate by drawing together lived experience with research and practice.
