George Sutcliffe
Summary
Enthusiastic and dedicated Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences graduate from the University of Birmingham, with a strong academic foundation in sports science and a deep personal commitment to athletics. As a competitive middle-distance runner and a member of the university athletics team, I bring firsthand understanding of athletic performance, motivation, and teamwork. My academic journey has involved a research-led dissertation exploring the effects of chia seed supplementation on endurance running performance, demonstrating skills in experimental design, data collection, and statistical analysis. Combining practical sporting experience with scientific knowledge, I am passionate about applying evidence-based methods to enhance human performance and am eager to contribute to innovative projects within the sports science field.
