I began working with ANGUSalive in September 2019 as an Operations Supervisor at Webster’s Sports Centre in Kirriemuir and I am currently seconded as the Board Executive Assistant. Taking on this role has allowed me to develop a much better understanding of the big picture for ANGUSalive, and how the various elements of the Trust link together. I have enjoyed the challenges that have come with the position with providing support for the Board and Senior Leadership Team, as well as having been involved in the development of some of the exciting new projects like the ANGUSalive mobile app.

I have always enjoyed sport and went back to university in 2008 where I graduated with a First Class Honours Degree in Strength and Conditioning, before going on to complete a PhD in Exercise Physiology. I’m an Accredited Coach with the UK Strength and Conditioning Association and have been coaching International level athletes from a wide range of different sports for nearly 10 years now. I am passionate about helping athletes develop their sporting potential and I find it very satisfying helping them reach their goals.

In my spare time I enjoy watching rugby and taking part in a range of outdoor activities on offer in the nearby Angus glens.
