ARCHITECT

Architects are imaginative & strategic thinkers with a plan for everything. 
These thoughtful tacticians love perfecting the details of life, applying creativity and rationality. 

Biggest influence

1. Stuart (my dad) aka ‘Pots’.
Discover your passion & what you’re good at
- he never knew.
2. Fabrice (my old boss in France). So generous sharing his knowledge & philosophies on swimming. We’d talk for hours every day.  

My gift

Observant. I tend to notice things.

Magic moment

Swimming has afforded me many magic moments. My time in Nice working alongside Fabrice & Olympic Gold medalists, World record holders and World champion swimmers was very special. We still keep in touch. 

Hobbies & interests

You’ll often find me pawing over my swimming notes accumulated over the years. 
Swimming aside, I love my Yamaha XJR1300 motorbike - I intend to strip it down, rebuild, & tastefully customise at some point.
