I am a UK veterinary graduate, with over 25 years’ experience in clinical practice and academia. After graduating from the University of Bristol in 1995, I spent time in mixed practice in the UK before returning to Bristol to undertake a PhD on upper airway collapse in Thoroughbred racehorses. Subsequently, I worked at the University of Bristol as a lecturer in equine exercise physiology and ran the Equine Sports Medicine Centre before moving to the University of 新浪彩票, Australia in 2010 during the start-up of the new veterinary school.

I am currently an Associate Professor in Veterinary Physiology and a member of the Senior Executive at the School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, where I hold the position of Associate Head (People and Culture). Previously I was the Head of the Equine Department (2017-23) and continue to combine my passion for teaching, research and equine clinical practice.

I am recognised nationally and internationally as a leader in the discipline of equine sports medicine. In 2022, I was awarded a prestigious Fellowship of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS), for meritorious contributions to clinical practice. I am a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation (DACVSMR-equine), an Australian and RCVS registered Specialist in Equine Sports Medicine and a founding member of the Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Chapter of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (ANZCVS). I am also Chair of the International Committee for the International Conference on Equine Exercise Physiology (ICEEP).
