Mae fy niddordebau ymchwil sylfaenol ym maes lles athletwyr, gan gynnwys straen, ymdopi a pherfformio, hyfforddiant sgiliau seicolegol a newid ymddygiad, ac amgylchedd sefydliadol chwaraeon elît. Mae gennyf ddiddordeb arbennig mewn sut mae'r unigolion hynny sy'n gweithredu o fewn amgylcheddau chwaraeon perfformiad uchel yn defnyddio adnoddau personol a chymdeithasol wrth iddynt drafod y gwahanol ofynion a roddir arnynt ar draws eu gyrfaoedd proffesiynol. Mae gen i ddiddordeb hefyd mewn iechyd meddwl a lles mewn amgylcheddau galwedigaethol ehangach a'r rôl y gall sgiliau seicolegol a gwydnwch ei chwarae wrth hwyluso iechyd a pherfformiad.
