I obtained a Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Physiology, Masters Degree in Research, and PhD at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) Brisbane. My Masters and PhD research involved investigating the role of exercise for improving health outcomes among women with breast cancer. Following my PhD, I completed a postdoctoral role within the exercise physiology and neuromuscular fatigue laboratory at the University of Lyon and University of Jean Monnet (France). Presently, as part of the ARENA research centre, I’ll be contributing to research around the beneficial effects of physical activity on health-related outcomes.
