About
I specialise in speed and athletic development, helping athletes build sprint mechanics, power and long-term durability.
My coaching combines clear technical instruction with structured progressions and intelligent workload management. As an active masters sprinter, I bring lived performance experience into every session, with a strong emphasis on tissue capacity and injury-resilient development.
Alongside direct coaching, I design and oversee structured training frameworks that ensure consistency, safe progression and measurable improvement across individuals and groups.
My focus is developing athletes who are fast, durable and built on solid foundations, within systems that support sustainable performance.
