Peak Conditioning Meets Relatable Commercial Appeal

In a fitness industry often dominated by twenty-something influencers and extreme off-season bulk-and-cut cycles, my approach centres on longevity, consistency, and real-world balance. At 39 years old, with eight Men’s Physique competitions under my belt and a fresh category win in November 2026, I have reached the sharpest, most balanced physique of my career.

Alongside my private personal training and group community classes, I serve as the contracted face and commercial model for multi-venue operator Trilogy Active, fronting their large-format gym entrance banners, website hero imagery, and digital campaigns. My commercial work spans everything from high-intensity technical lifts to approachable, member-facing lifestyle photography—proving that a stage-ready physique can coexist with a warm, relatable presence.

Working as a full-time Personal Trainer and Fitness Instructor whilst raising two young children leaves zero room for unsustainable crash dieting. Instead, my conditioning is built on an active daily lifestyle, structured hypertrophy training, regular cardiovascular endurance, and intelligent recovery.
