I am excited to share the first publication from my dissertation work investigating cadence manipulation (+5% and +10%) in high school cross-country runners!
The first 50 copies are free online: tandfonline.com/eprint/BZZ65…
🔑may be a promising intervention for reducing loads applied to the knee, but gradual implementation is likely needed to avoid overloading the hip (more to come soon 🤞….)
Special thanks to my committee members @DrBazettJones , Bryan Heiderscheit, @emilykrausmd , @Grant_Norte , and @AmandaMurrayPT for the continued support throughout the process.

New publication out!
✅ Bilateral deficits in single-leg hop for distance performance does not seem to occur concomitantly with sagittal plane movement differences in people with patellofemoral pain as compared to controls.

I have a doctoral-level graduate assistantship in the concentration of Applied Biomechanics beginning Fall 2025.
Research focus will be on running biomechanics, training, injuries, footwear, and performance.

We would love to have your XC runners participate in this study!
🎉 It’s finally here! 🎉
After 5 years of on-and-off work, I am excited to announce our systematic review investigating the relationship between hip strength and hip and knee kinematics during single-leg tasks is officially published! 📚✅
