Meet your coach
Coach.
Athlete.
Performance specialist.
I help endurance athletes maximise their potential through intelligent training and structured progression.
My coaching journey
Like many athletes, my journey into endurance sport started with curiosity. What began as a personal challenge quickly became a deep fascination with performance: how the body adapts, how training stress translates into improvement and how intelligent structure unlocks potential. Over the years I’ve experienced the sport from multiple perspectives:
- As an athlete
- As a student of endurance performance
- And as a coach helping others reach their goals
What I discovered is simple. Most athletes are capable of far more than they realise. They just need the right structure, guidance, and feedback.
That’s what coaching provides.
My experience
I combine real-world racing experience with structured coaching expertise.

Podiums
Progressed from second-to-last in my first race to multiple podiums and top 10 finishes across a range of distances

What it’s like to work with me
Athletes often say working with me feels different from traditional coaching. The focus is not just on completing sessions. It’s about understanding your training and becoming a smarter athlete. The relationship is collaborative. Because the best results come when coach and athlete work as a team.
You can expect:
- Clear communication
- Honest feedback
- A coach who genuinely cares about your progress
- Structured progression
- Long-term development
