I am a Professional Sailor and have been in the game for over 15 years now. A graduate of the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron Youth Training Programme, I left my home country of New Zealand in 2008, 'cutting my teeth' on the World Match Racing Circuit and being crowned 2009 World Match Racing Champion's as part of our Black Match Racing Team. I competed in the 2011 & 2014 Volvo Ocean Races and over the years have raced with many Grand Prix Race Teams. 

Over the past decade I have certainly developed a skill in getting the most out of a crew/boat, with a massive emphasis on communication and keeping the intensity up, while also having fun. I have coached Fast 40's, TP52's, P40's and almost anything in between. I really do get a kick out of helping teams out.
