About Me
Sydney
I am a career writer, journalist and editor with a special interest in health, medicine, nutrition and exercise. I also worked as a strength coach and competed internationally as an athlete before becoming dual-accredited as an exercise physiologist and exercise scientist.
My core strength is translating complex technical and scientific information into clear, engaging content tailored to different audiences. I have written and edited for mainstream media, government and privately funded health initiatives, industry associations, brand media, international sports events and trade and industry promotion programs.
I have a particular interest in sports training and injury, and the use of exercise as therapy for both physical and mental health conditions. As an exercise physiologist, I bring practical knowledge of major chronic health conditions – including cancer, diabetes and neurological disease – along with effective communication strategies for patients and their support networks.
I am passionate about combatting misinformation and misunderstanding through content that is both accurate and engaging. I can assist with media responses, thought leadership articles, and market or public health education.
