Even nomads need a place to call home.
In 2014 I moved back to Aotearoa to put down roots...(temporarily) with Outward Bound New Zealand.
While my spirit is in one place, various adventures are still high on the agenda - stay tuned...

Triple Bronze Medalist USA vs South Pacific 2003
During my teens I was identified as a possible candidate for the sport of weightlifting and spent the next six years in training, representing Australia on numerous occasions and attaining a placing of 8th at the 2004 World Junior Championships.
Following my career retirement due to a back injury, I obtained a Bachelor of Counselling and after practicing for several years continued onto a Masters degree. Due to my nomadic nature itchy feet took me to New Zealand to pursue a career in the outdoors where I get to use all of my skills.
I have many places I call home but for now, Aotearoa is my address.
