I have been passionate about outdoor learning and adventure all my life. For the last 20 years I have been involved in coaching and outdoor leadership.
I am a Canoe Coach Educator, providing Paddlesport Instructor, British Canoeing Coach Award Core, Discipline Specific Training and Assessment in both canoe and kayak. I am National Trainer for Leadership, Fitness for Paddlesport, Coaching the Mind and Outdoor Education.
I work as a technical advisor for several businesses and third sector organisations.
Bushcraft is another passion. My area of expertise is green wood working and primitive craft. I run my own courses as well as working for several well-known bushcraft schools as a guest instructor.
My motivation is the belief that everyone can get out there and have their own outdoor adventures that are meaningful to them. My goal is to support and inspire people to do exactly that!
