I have been karting for 17 years, during this time I have coached and raced both in New Zealand and overseas.

I enjoy coaching both adult and junior drivers, I believe in recognising strengths and eliminating bad habits, with a “don’t hide behind excuses” approach. I can provide not only driver training but also kart setup and engine building to give them a full package allowing them to reach their best ability.

I enjoy watching them develop and succeed over time which is shown in the results our IKS (International Kart Supplies) team has been accomplishing at many different levels.

My Racing Achievements
• 9x National Sprint Championship Titles.
• 3x Rotax Grand Finals (2012,2013,2014)
• I have raced internationally representing NZ in Portugal, USA, Spain and Australia

I have been frequently assisting NZ Junior drivers competing in Australia over the past two seasons which I get huge satisfaction from as the drivers learn a different style of racing.

In 2015 my partner Freya and I purchased International Kart Supplies and are the Sodi Kart distributor for NZ.

I specialise in Vortex, Rotax and KZ2 engine building, chassis set up and driver training. I feel very fortunate to work in the sport which brings me and customers so much enjoyment.

I am a qualified mechanic completing my apprenticeship in 2012.
