Player Bio

I became competitive in mid 2007 after enjoying competing in Pakuranga athletics club nights. and began training with my coach David Drummond 5-6 times a week. I competed in most Auckland middle distance junior meets for that season and while i was training with David. i continued training with him until January 2009 after becoming frustrated with results and injuries.
I continued running regularly for the next 6 months then from missing the sport began training again under guidance from my school sports coordinator.
In March 2011 i began training with Roy Mendoca who i am currently training with. i am currently training 6-8 times a week with my goal to achieve my best at the 2011 nationals in December in the 800m.
