BIO

Started sailing in 2009 at Wakatere Boating Club. Initially racing the Optimist, followed by the 420 and 470 classes. Joined the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron in 2017, where I got involved in match racing and keelboat sailing. This is where I first started sailing with Nick and Alastair. I progressed through the Youth to Senior Match racing circuits, winning many of the major events around the world, culminating in the 2022 Match Racing Worlds. Alongside the match racing I race on a TP52 in Auckland and have won National titles in one design keelboats. I also race a foiling moth and am involved with organising the 2024 Moth Worlds in Auckland. Outside of yachting I am working as a climate risk analyst.
