About

As Professor of Psychology at the University of Hull, I bring over 22 years of experience in research, leadership, and university teaching. My work focuses on advancing sport psychology, with a specialization in psycho-social factors influencing doping behaviors, as well as the dynamics of emotions, coping, and stress in sports contexts. I have contributed extensively to high-impact research publications, including systematic reviews and investigations into psychological principles related to athletic performance. My experiences of securing research funding has enabled collaborations with prominent organizations such as the International Olympic Committee, World Anti-Doping Agency, and the European Commission, furthering the development of innovative projects within the field.
