1. A friend is training for a long-distance run and asks what to eat before the race. What do you tell them?

I think about carbs, hydration and meal timing – and if they have bigger questions, I suggest seeing a specialist. I tell them what I eat before training. I tell them to eat whatever they fancy.

2. You pick up a tub of protein powder in a shop. What do you look at?

I read the ingredients and compare the protein, sugar and additives. The price and the flavour. I buy the one a popular influencer recommends.

3. How do you feel about biology and chemistry?

I like them – I’m especially curious about how the body gets energy during exercise. I study them because I have to. They’re not really my thing.

4. You see a tip on social media: ’Never eat carbs in the evening.’ What do you do?

Check what the research says before I believe it. Give it a go and see if it works. Start doing it straight away.

5. How active are you?

I train regularly and notice how food affects my performance and recovery. I exercise now and then. Sport doesn’t interest me.

6. You’ll study in an international environment, in English: classes, research papers and presentations, with students from many countries. How does that sound?

Great – sports nutrition research is published in English anyway, and people from other countries will show me different cuisines and eating habits. Fine, though reading scientific papers in English will be a challenge. I’d rather study in my first language.

7. Someone on your team wants to lose a few kilos fast before a competition. What do you advise?

To do it gradually and sensibly – so they don’t lose strength or harm their health – ideally with a specialist’s help. To just eat less. I tell them it’s none of my business.

8. How often do you cook?

Often – I like experimenting with healthy recipes and planning meals around my training. Sometimes, something simple. Hardly ever – I eat whatever’s to hand.

9. What kind of work can you see yourself doing in future?

Nutrition advice for athletes, sports clubs, gyms or active people. Anything to do with sport. Work that has nothing to do with sport or health.

10. What motivates you most to study Nutrition in Sports and Fitness?

Wanting to help people perform better and stay healthy through smart nutrition. I’m interested in diet and sport. I’m not sure it’s for me
