What else?

“During my years at the Universities and further education, I acquired the scientific knowledge to attain a strong multidisciplinary fundament in sports, exercise, nutrition and health. I have conducted, published and am still involved in research in Sport Science, aiming to complete a PhD. As a sport scientist, I have an eye for detail while analyzing human movement and behavior from a critical point of view. I enjoy applying scientific knowledge whilst training and educating people from different backgrounds with a positive attitude to aid them achieving their goals. Through working with a broad variety of clients in my years of expertise, I’ve had the pleasure to enthusiastically apply the theory into various real-world settings which helped me in diversifying my background – enabling me to coach trainees through all levels of experience.”
