Born in Hamilton, New Zealand but grew up in Melbourne, Australia. I began playing basketball at the age of six. I made my way through the ranks through my junior career and earned a spot on the Victorian team in 2002 where we won a Silver Medal at Nationals.
After a two year LDS mission, I earned an opportunity to play for the Manawatu Jets in the New Zealand Professional league.
After, a knee injury I transitioned into Performance Coaching and Personal Training. My main goal being that I wanted to educate athletes on how to use Strength and Conditioning to prolong their careers, avoid injury and be more health conscious.
I have been working with general population and athletes for over ten years now.
