About Me
Ive been in the fitness industry for 19 years starting out as Group Fitness instructor. I moved to Australia 7 years ago. In this time I have managed 8 different clubs and now have had the honour of opening World Gym Stafford!
Coming from a musical theatre background and having danced in multiple productions over the years, I found that by adding more disciplined strength and conditioning to my routine has reduced reduced injury and created an avenue for an amazing career that I enjoy daily.

I have been in the fitness industry for 5 years now. Following a sporting footballing background It was a natural progression to align my values and be around like-minded individuals who love health + fitness. World Gym is more than a gym but an amazing community and I’m thankful to be apart of it.
Originally from New Zealand, I moved to Brisbane following the devastating earthquakes in Christchurch. Always up for a chat, come say hi in club!

I spent many years playing 2 major competitive sports (Rugby Union & Basketball) at multiple levels locally, nationally & internationally. I spent 16 years in large corporations involved in large scale technology transformation and change. After this, I spent time in disability healthcare using technology and data to create large scale health data tools and processes for the NDIS. Whilst working in these roles I also completed my Masters of Business Administration (Exec MBA) at Deakin University.
After major spinal surgery, I decided to join the health & fitness industry to follow my passion for helping others recapture their health on a more personal and individual basis.
I am delighted to have the opportunity to work closely with our carefully selected Personal Trainers at World Gym Stafford and would welcome the chance to introduce you to them!

Coaching Men and Women in both personal and athletic development for over 10 years including 13 years in the military.
I’m passionate about movement and exercise after having a number of ailments in my early years which included nerve damage to one of my arms.
I came into Personal Training later in life to first find out why things were going wrong with tears and pains in my body. Rather than keep going around the circle of other professionals i sought to learn as much as I could about my body and take on that responsibility myself.
It was there that i discovered a true passion for finding issues with the body and correcting them and advancing muscles and movements to different levels. This then turned into a drive to find others who were having similar issues and concerns with their bodies, and be the positive influence they could have in helping them move without pain, move more functionally and develop better movement patterns.
