Having grown up in a tennis playing and coaching family in the UK, I moved into coaching in my late teens. First working at The Lensbury Club in south-west London, before joining PBI – Peter Burwash International, which saw me working for a short time in Doha, Qatar, before moving with the same company to Hong Kong, working at the Aberdeen Marina Club and the American Club.

I spent the past 15 years in Hong Kong and, after leaving PBI, worked at a handful of other clubs in the city, as well as working as a self-employed coach at private complexes and public facilities. During this time I also taught and competed in surf ski (ocean racing kayak) paddling and was the Hong Kong distributor for a leading kayak brand – Epic Kayaks.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my 20-plus years of coaching tennis to people of all ages, ability levels and personalities and I now very much look forward to my next chapter, and getting to know the members at Campbells Bay and helping them all to get the most of out of their game.
