Assistant Professor of Physical Culture and Sport Studies, The University of Texas at Austin

I am an Assistant Professor of Physical Culture and Sport Studies at University of Texas at Austin. My research focuses on the rise of health and body cultures in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century with reference to gymnasiums, physical education and military training. More recently I have begun to examine the changing nature of athletic diets in the twentieth-century.
