Sport and Fitness has always been a major part in my life. While growing up my main focus was hockey, representing Canterbury from age 10 to 18 but would have a go at any sport on offer. I then moved to Dunedin and studied Physical Education for 4 years at the University of Otago and continued playing senior representative hockey. In 2002 I completed the Speights Coast to Coast before heading off on my Overseas Adventure which took me to America, Europe and Africa.

Back in New Zealand I have worked in exercise prescription, adventure tourism and sport management roles. Still playing a bit of hockey as well as running marathons (including the Everest & Great Wall marathons) with my latest interest being triathlons, particularly the longer distance type having completed my first Ironman in Taupo this year and going back to improve in 2010.
