I have been working as an adventure guide for several seasons across a number of walks. Ranging from Bay of Fires in Tasmania to the Great Ocean Walk


Mountain Bike Guide

I have been riding a mountain bike for almost 3 decades and still absolutely love it. I learnt many of my skills in NZ where I was lucky enough to have Rotorua on my doorstep. I have led trips in NZ, Tasmania and hope to lead a ride down the Old Ghost Road in 2024.

Hiking Guide

Over the last couple of seasons I have worked for a number of companies in Tasmania, Victoria and out in the Flinders Ranges. I have been a support driver, cook and lead guide on many of these tours. I am also Wilderness First Aid qualified.
