About

Nine years ago, while training to represent Australia in the triathlon, I was hit by a car. My athletic career was seemingly over. Desperate to recover, I dove into the science of the brain, applying cutting-edge neurophysiology to my own rehabilitation. Not only did I recover, but I went on to compete at the World Championships. I trained at Sydney Medical School, earned a Master of Medicine in Clinical Neurophysiology, and I'm currently completing my PhD in Neuroscience focused on Alzheimer's disease. That experience became my life's mission: to bring the science of peak performance out of the lab and into the boardroom. Today, as a clinical neurophysiologist and human performance coach, I help the world's most elite performers unlock their cognitive potential. I work with top portfolio managers on Wall Street to sharpen decision-making under pressure, with CEOs of Fortune 500 companies to build resilient leadership, and with elite athletes in the NBA, MLB, and NFL to extend their careers. My work is built on a simple premise: the brain is an asset. It can be trained, optimized, and protected. Through my company, Neuro Athletics, and my podcast, The Neuro Experience, I democratize the science of brain health, making it accessible to everyone. My recent focus has been on a critical, often-overlooked area: the unique aspects of the female brain, particularly during the pivotal midlife years where preventative action against cognitive decline is most crucial. Whether I'm delivering a keynote at Google or consulting with a hedge fund, my goal is the same: to provide a science-backed operating manual for human performance.
