​

Formerly a student of the Royal Ballet School in Sadlers Wells, London (Junior Associate), I first qualified as an aerobics instructor & personal trainer when I was 18. I was the flyer on a British national cheerleading champion at university, which was awesome! I was a lecturer of A Level Biology, BTEC National Anatomy & Physiology & undergraduate level Sport Studies for many years and also the Head of Women's American Football for GB. ​​​ A big supporter of sport, I sat on the Executive Board of IFAF, a 70-nation American football governing body, for many years. ​​

 

I have a long history of competing in natural (drug free) bodybuilding. Highlights include reaching the British National Championships of the NPA three times (highest placing 3rd), and winning the Heart of England Championships (Figure category) as well as securing Best Presentation.​ Outside of the gym, I am a writer - many of my books have been published by Taylor & Francis. I also love SUP boarding & hiking.
