I am an Exercise and Nutrition Scientist and EU Registered Nutritionist. My profession involves analysing the athlete’s behaviour, actions and reactions for better performance during and after training sessions and competitions. I do this by analysing through physics principles of body movement and gravity, body chemical reactions and processes during and after exercise and body physiology. I give support and help in what the coaches are aiming for their athletes. I am a visiting lecturer at UOM. I am also reading a PhD at the Faculty of Medicine, at UOM where my research focuses on nutritional strategies for the prevention of colorectal cancer hence my special interest in gut health and the issues thereof. I am also the co-founder of a biomedical technology R&D company where we specialise in optimising multiplex assay techniques in liquid biopsies to identify solid tumours in plasma.
