Coaching Bio

Former Super Rugby and NRC representative, and Shute Shield Captain for Eastern Surburbs. I am passionate about helping young athletes develop and learn on and off field skills.

Previously played professionally for the QLD Reds, NSW Country Eagles as well as in Romania and USA. Whilst playing I have been heavily involved in coaching as a coach at the UQ Rugby Academy in Brisbane, USA Youth Rugby, Nike Rugby Camps, Sydney Grammar School and Development Officer for NSW Rugby. I aim to pass on my experience and knowledge to help young rugby players, at any stage of their development, through highly engaging, fun and diverse sessions.
