From a young age I have always been fascinated by the function and performance human body and since then I have always practiced methods on how to make the human body stronger, faster, leaner, build more muscle mass and build endurance. This led me in the participation of martial arts like the art of boxing, kickboxing (both at competitive level), judo and karate, running, football, basketball and volleyball. I also used weightlifting and bodyweight exercise to improve my performance in the sports I participated in.

I have dedicated my life to finding, studying and applying what really works effectively in the fields of health, strength, conditioning and performance.

I have been in a gym environment for most of my life and I have many years of personal experience and experience in helping people achieve their health, physique, fitness, body composition and performance goals.

I have been fortunate to study nutrition from some of the best Doctors, nutritionists and naturopaths of today and to the value of my clients I remain a student of nutrition to keep up to date with scientific breakthroughs and assist my clients with their health and fitness goals whatever they may be.

I have had the honour to intern and work with some great strength and conditioning coaches around the world like Zach Even-Esh and Mike Mahler whom have inspired my training techniques and methods which I continue to utilise and develop with my fellow clients.

I have worked with many athletes at world championship level and have helped them increase their strength and performance in their sport, I have worked with professional boxers, footballers, strongman, mixed martial artists, golfers, tri athletes, sprinters, rock climbers, netball teams and many more.

I have a wide range of experience in coaching from professional athletes, to pregnant mums, to teaching and coaching kids. To this day I have dedicated my life in promoting and inspiring optimal health and fitness.

I have always been interested in sports and fitness and have played a variety of sports from being a small child. This talent, passion and desire in sports and fitness has led to many great honours including playing Football at a professional standard in the U.S.A. I always knew that I wanted to pursue a career in this industry whether it was playing sport professionally, teaching or training others. After suffering a career ending injury, I have tried sports coaching, fitness instructing and fitness management, but found my true passion in personal training.

I have worked in the sports and fitness industry since 2003 and have developed a great passion for training people and helping them to achieve their goals. From a personal trainer's point of view, there is no better feeling than watching someone transform themselves and successfully achieve what they set out to achieve. As a personal trainer I give my clients all help and support that they deserve, monitoring their progression carefully, so that each and every session is safe and effective. I also try to make it as enjoyable as I can, varying each and every session, but continuing to provide an effective workout.

I have worked with a wide variety of people, ranging from inexperienced clients to elite athletes and have helped clients achieve a wide range of goals. Since joining the team at Soma, I have personally developed as a personal trainer; learning new types and methods of training, and developing my own nutritional knowledge. Soma enable me to train clients on a one to one basis, in a personal and friendly environment, using the top of the range equipment.

It won't happen overnight, but with the right attitude, hard work and a good diet, I believe that I can help anyone work towards achieving their goals.

I will give you my knowledge, skills and complete commitment, dedicating myself to you and your goals!
