I started swimming at the age of 5 at the Natajaks swim school in Dorchester, progressing to County, District and National Qualification Time with various other swimming clubs. The highlight of my career was swimming for England in the 1500m Front crawl. I then went to University and joined the ‘City of Southampton Swimming Club’ where I completed my competitive swimming career, although I still take part in the occasional sea swim!
After graduating, I gained employment with the University of Southampton’s Sport and Recreation Department. In my five years there I established a swim school which grew to be one of the best swim schools for children and adults in Southampton.

I was head coach of the University of Southampton Swimming team where I have worked with two commonwealth swimmers, one of which won a Bronze medal in Melbourne 2006. The University Team have competed in BUSA League Finals for the last 4 years and have also had swimmers placed in the National championships every year since I became coach.

Swimming is a huge passion of mine and I am so proud to be in a position to inspire the same passion in others through my own swim school.
