​
I'm an experienced strength and conditioning coach who specialises in sports performance through the physical development of athletes.
​
My deep passion for sport and fascination in elite physical preparation and training, naturally steered me toward a career in high performance sport.
In 2014, after completing a Certificate IV in Fitness, I gained employment with a renowned and well-established personal training studio. Here my learning began and my outlook on training advanced as I worked with a diverse set of clients and population groups.
This type of broad industry exposure fast tracked my development, and I soon found myself achieving great results, particularly in the injury rehabilitation space. Through identifying dysfunction via assessment and understanding efficient movement, I learnt to apply corrective drills and prioritise movement competency to re-establish efficient function. This often mitigated or eradicated chronic and debilitating injures.
After graduating with a Bachelor of Exercise & Sport Science, I shifted focus to my primary interest and area of expertise - sports performance. The invaluable experience I gained at AFL clubs Hawthorn and Western Bulldogs lead me to my current role at North Melbourne Football Club as VFL High Performance Manager and AFL Strength and Conditioning Assistant.
I am no stranger to debilitating injuries myself. Over the years, I have made many mistakes, endured multiple significant injuries and gone through extensive rehabilitation. My experience, however, has provided me with vital knowledge and furthered my motivation to help others.
My diverse industry experience, years of hands-on mentorship and a personal journey filled with setbacks culminates in a unique perspective. From this, I have the know-how to help athletes of any level, and the experience to support everyday individuals in reaching their physical potential.
