I have been working professionally in Strength and Conditioning, elite sport and coach education for over 20 years. Prior to becoming a paediatric Strength and Conditioning specialist, I worked in professional cricket as Head of Strength and Conditioning at Sussex County Cricket Club from 2003-2007 including a stint as a consultant to the England U19 Cricket team for the junior World Cup in 2005. In 2004 I was Assistant Technical Coach for the Great Britain Women’s Basketball team. I continued my association with top-flight cricket as an Athletic Performance consultant to Surrey County Cricket Club from 2009 to 2011. From 2008 until 2013 I was part of the AMS team providing Strength and Conditioning guidance for WTA tour tennis player, Olympian and British number 1, Elena Baltacha. In 2009 I set up the first integrated Strength and Conditioning programme in an Independent School in the UK at Reed’s School where I remain Head of Strength and Conditioning and Head of the Sport Performance Programme.

During my career I have been very fortunate to work with some of the best coaches, trainers and medics in the world. In those surroundings you pick up great knowledge and learning. I want to apply these skills and lessons learned when working with you on the Stronger Project.
