Biography

Born in Devonport, New Zealand, August 5, 1974, Cullen played hockey at an international level for New Zealand between the ages of 15 and 21. She holds a degree in health science and physiotherapy.

Cullen worked at the English Institute of Sport in London as a senior physiotherapist, supporting the British Olympic team, UK Athletics the British triathlon team and other corporate clients. In the British Olympic team, she worked with 100 m and 200 m sprinters and the 4 × 100 m relay team, the latter going on to win a gold medal at the 2004 Summer Olympic games in Athens.

Cullen undertook a cycle tour in 2006 riding from Tierra del Fuego to Colombia, cycling up to 155 miles a day. She was later a senior advisor for SPARC High Performance in New Zealand. Cullen also worked with the New Zealand Academy of Sport and Sport New Zealand.
