Biography
Doctoral Researcher specializing in physically active lifestyle promotion, student well-being, and educational leadership.
Research interests
I work as a doctoral researcher in the PA4WELL project. The project involves implementing a physical activity intervention that integrates opportunities for increasing physical activity into the school day. At the same time, we are investigating the intervention’s effects on students’ physical activity levels, as well as their physical, social, and mental health, and evaluating the effectiveness of different implementation support strategies.
My doctoral dissertation focuses on the role of school principals in promoting physically active lifestyles. My aim is to collect a nationally representative and diverse dataset that could be used to support school leadership in addressing the challenges they face today.
