What’s your background and how did you get started in the fitness industry?
I grew up immersed in competitive sport, playing tennis from age four, with some of my time spent playing in Florida. That competitive grounding drew me toward coaching and performance, leading me to complete a Bachelor’s degree followed by a Master’s in Physiology. During my postgraduate studies, I worked within GB Rowing’s Olympic programme, supporting the women’s squad, before moving on to train the senior squad at Harlequins Rugby Club.
How would you describe your coaching style?
Direct but empathetic, built on a foundation of high support paired with high standards. I care deeply about the people I work with, and I hold them accountable to their goals.
What about being a PT inspires or interests you the most?
Building community — creating an environment where clients drive and inspire one another, and where we collectively raise the standard across the fitness industry.
What achievement as a PT are you most proud of?
Working with an athlete during my time on GB Rowing’s programme who went on to win an Olympic gold medal a few years later. Being part of that development process, and seeing it culminate on the world’s biggest stage, remains one of the most rewarding moments of my career.
