About us

Jay Dawes, PhD, CSCS, *D, NSCA-CPT, TSAC-F, FNSCA, is a professor of applied exercise science in the School of Kinesiology, Applied Health and Recreation at OSU. Dr. Dawes has worked as a university athletic performance coordinator, strength/performance coach, personal trainer and educator for over 20 years. His primary research interests is focused on improving the health, fitness and human performance for the tactical athletes and first responders. He is the co-founder and co-director of the OSU Tactical Fitness and Nutrition Lab and a member of the OSU Fire Council.

 

Jill Joyce, PhD, RD, is a Registered Dietitian, associate professor of public health nutrition in the Department of Nutritional Sciences and co-founder of the OSU Tactical Fitness and Nutrition Lab. She has been a RD for almost 10 years, spent nine years as an active duty Army spouse and has numerous family members and friends who are firefighters, soldiers and law enforcement officers. At OSU, Jill is excited and honored to be able to serve those who serve us by creating and testing public health nutrition programs to improve the health, fitness and performance of tactical athletes.
