John joined St Mary’s University in 2005 as a full time member of staff in the School of Sport, Health and Applied Science. He specialises in teaching exercise physiology at undergraduate and post-graduate level, but also makes substantial contributions to coaching science modules all within the Sport Science department. 

John graduated from University College Chichester with a BSc. (hons) degree Sport Science in 1999, and again in 2000 with a MSc. in Sport and Exercise Science (Physiology Pathway). In the intervening years John attended Roehampton University where he started his PhD. John's research interests include VO2 kinetics, respiratory physiology, physiology of running and the effects of warm-up on performance.

John is a member of the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES), he is currently undergoing BASES accreditation in sport science support (physiology). John has previously supported many athletes on a consultancy basis and is currently supporting some athletes at St Mary’s University as part of his accreditation.

Outside University, John is an active sportsman and currently participates in several sports, such as, cycling, running, climbing, squash, golf and skiing when he can!
