From building businesses, climbing some of the world’s most iconic mountains to standing on the podium in some of the toughest races on the planet. Through the medium of storytelling, he helps teams develop discipline, anti-fragility and an internal narrative that drives performance across their entire lives. 

He is a qualified and practising Pharmacist, high altitude mountaineer, full time and self-confessed ‘nerdy dad”, ultra runner, motivational speaker, property developer, student and sometime adventure racer. He has climbed major peaks on all seven continents and competed in some of Australia and the world's toughest ultra-marathons.
