Coach Bio

"Train smart. Race hard. Enjoy the journey!"

With over 15 years of competitive triathlon experience and a qualification for the Ironman World Championship, I bring real-world racing insight, proven methodology, and a deep commitment to helping athletes succeed - on their terms.

Whether you’re a beginner, age-grouper, or professional athlete, I offer a coaching experience that’s personal, performance-driven, and built around your life.

I’ve raced across every triathlon distance, felt the grind of long training blocks, and stood on the start line at the Ironman World Championship. My journey has taught me that success in triathlon isn’t just about hard work - it’s about working smart, finding joy in the process, and being supported every step of the way.

My approach is grounded in Brett Sutton’s globally respected methodology and shaped by my personal experience. I coach with empathy, structure, and a clear eye on your goals - whether that’s a finish line, a personal best, or just consistency in a busy life.

Whether you’re new to the sport or chasing pro-level results, I offer comprehensive support across all areas of triathlon development.
