I focus on the psychological development of athletes and their personal development through playing sports.

My research examines how psychological skills are developed to enhance sport performance, and explores how, why, and under what conditions life skills are developed in sport and transferred to other life domains.

My community-engaged work focuses on the development and implementation of educational programs to support the development of athletes and coaches.
