Work With Me

This isn’t generic coaching.
It’s access to someone
who’s actually been there.

I’m not selling a generic program or a PDF. I’m offering my time, my experience, and a direct line to everything I’ve learned doing hard things — often without a guide or sponsors.

Why I do this

When I was preparing for my first Olympics, I had no one who’d done it before me. No Australian had ever competed in skimo at the Games. I was managing ankylosing spondylitis — a chronic arthritic inflammatory condition — while training at altitude in Colorado & France, working remotely for peanuts, navigating foreign bureaucracies, and figuring out race logistics solo.

I made a lot of mistakes. I also figured out a lot of things the hard way. Now I want to give other people the shortcuts I never had.

Who this is for

Athletes who want to get better — at skimo, trail running, or both. People managing a chronic illness who refuse to let it be the ceiling. Anyone doing something no one around them has done before. People navigating a move abroad and building a life from scratch in a new country.

You don’t have to be elite. You just have to want it.

This might be for you if…
You’re a trail runner who wants to get into skimo and don’t know where to start
You’ve been diagnosed with AS, RA, or another chronic condition and everyone keeps telling you to slow down
You’re moving abroad to train and need someone who’s navigated visas, housing, and healthcare in a foreign country
You want to race smarter — not just harder
You’re doing something no one in your circle has done and you need someone who gets it
You want direct access to an Olympian — not a templated plan
