What is your background?
I was born in Sutton Coldfield (West Midlands – Someone had to be) and was always keen on football from a young age. Unfortunately, too much too young and poor management, so I hung the boots up and I developed a natural ability for Hockey, and this led me to compete at county level and then onto West of England along with National league.
I then joined the Royal Air Force; I continued my passion with sport and became
a Physical training instructor. Along with many of the hats that this job entailed, I also developed a love for skiing and became on instructor whilst working in Germany. I then returned to UK and studied to become an exercise rehabilitation instructor at Headley Court. Competing in sport from a young age has led my passion for learning new activities, coaching, and helping others develop and enhance their potential.
