Bio: I am studying BSc Population Health at UCL and I am now in my third and final year of study. I am thoroughly enjoying my course which incorporates many different interesting perceptions of public and global health. It is fantastic that with the support from UCL's Elite Athlete programme that I can combine both my academic and sporting lifestyle. I have represented UCL RAX at competitions such as LUCA, South of England Student Championships and BUCS - which hosts many of the country's best athletes. I have been heavily involved in athletics for almost 10 years now and have been competing for my home club (Enfield and Haringey) in various events including 200m, 300m, 400m and 800m. I am grateful to have the support from Team UCL moving forwards in my sport and I can definitely say that the physiotherapy, nutritional and strength and conditioning programme have greatly enhanced my performances within the sport.
