Tennis has played a significant role throughout my life. I participated in junior tournaments in Scotland and later competed in BUCS for Marjon’s (University of Exeter). I have taken part in international events in countries such as France, Sweden, Fiji, and Malaysia. After moving to New Zealand in my 20s, I began coaching while working as an accountant and continuing to compete. 

I took part in the first Junior Development Coaching course held in NZ and met some great people who I’m happy to call friends and fellow coaches, some 20 years later!

My lessons focus on technique, strategy, fitness, rules, and etiquette, with an emphasis on player engagement, motivation and fun. I enjoy balancing outdoor tennis with office time. 

My enthusiasm for tennis sparks players to work hard and stay excited on the court.  My obessession for success is infectious and I believe that tennis is a sport that gives us  challenges in both fitness and determination. 

I look forward to meeting you on court to enjoy this journey together
