Growing up as a competitive swimmer in Hungary, I experienced first-hand the physical and mental demands of sport. By the age of 10, I was already swimming twice a day—pushing myself to the limits of both endurance and mindset. After stepping away from the pool, I found a new challenge in long-distance running and completed my first ultra-marathon in 2021.

​

These experiences shaped my curiosity about the mental side of performance. I remember asking myself questions like, “Why do I feel so nervous?” or “How can I train so hard and still fall short?” That curiosity became a passion—and ultimately a career.

​

I completed my undergraduate degree at Bournemouth University, followed by a Master’s in Sport and Exercise Psychology from the University of Winchester and a second Master’s in Psychology from Oxford Brookes University. I then went on to complete a PhD focused on developing team resilience in high-performance women’s football. I am a Chartered member of the British Psychological Society and registered with the Health Care Professions Council. 

​

Now, I split my time between applied sport psychology work, university teaching, and ongoing research. I'm also a proud mum to a baby girl—which brings its own kind of resilience, perspective, and joy to my journey.

​

My mission is to help athletes, exercisers, and teams strengthen their mindset, build resilience, and perform with confidence—both in sport and in life.
