He was formerly employed as the Physiology Manager for High Performance Sport New Zealand, where he worked extensively with New Zealand Triathlon. He retained his role as Adjunct Professor of Exercise Physiology at Auckland University of Technology, where he was to reside at the nexus between theory, research and application of sport science and physiology for high-performance sport.
