I was a little late to the fly fishing game and I didn't fish much as a kid on conventional tackle. I picked up a fly rod and began the journey into the world of fly fishing after I attended a Fly Program retreat. Shortly after the first fly rod was purchased and from there the pursuit of fly fishing has completely consumed my life. I am now  fortunate enough to work with The Fly Program in delivering these world class retreats in the NSW Snowy Mountains,.

​

Previous passions and endeavours include competitive cycling, golfer and award winning landscape photographer. I feel like fly fishing combines all of these. The attention to detail involved in pursuing golf, the drive to improve as a cyclist and the love for being in the outdoors  taking landscape photographs, fly fishing combines all these attributes. I feel calm, centred and completely at home when standing in a river, fly rod in hand casting at rising trout. 

​​

As a newly Certified Casting Instructor with the Fly Fishers International, I combine my technical training with an approachable personality to share the intoxicating experience of fly fishing. 

​

Fly fishing isn't just for the gentleman with patches on his jacket elbows, standing in a stream casting for trout -  its for anyone, any species of fish and in all waters.​​
