I coach Bracknell Cobras D3 Mens team/U16 and also Head of Basketball for Slough Cobras.

I am a product of Greenhouse Sports. I started playing basketball at Bacons College when I was 10, right at the beginning of Greenhouse Basketball. Learning the game while also understanding life through the coaching I had around me has really helped me throughout my life until even today. Having seen the impact it’s had on me in my life it is unquestionably the sole reason that I would want to find a way to give back.

After leaving Bacons College, where I’ve learned how to play under Predrag Krneta, I went on to experience various levels of basketball around London. Exhibitions and trials abroad in countries such as France, Belgium and Germany. While learning how to play, I applied myself to learn how to referee and table officiate from U12’s to Division one men’s game. After leaving college, where I played under former GB great Joel Moore, I went on to be a successful manager at two major supermarkets to help my team building and managing skills improve. This experience allowed me to use the teamwork skills I learned for basketball in the real world while in a working environment. Another valuable skill this experience improved was my problem/situation solving skills, having been in a fast paced work environment it makes handling sports situations a lot simpler.

I left management to pursue a coaching career, I had already begun coaching in my youth for various smalls clubs such as Greenwich Titans and Corelli College. I took over Goldsmiths University Women’s team to improve their girls team as they had a continuous losing record to a new program. The main goal was to improve engagement and the development of the players who would join. The skills I had learned during management really helped me understand how to get the most out of my team. Having only managed a season before COVID, the girls went from a losing 1-9 record to second place finish with a record of 7-3. The season with the women’s university team gave me the experience of working with a range of different abilities and skillsets and gave me a better understanding of how to make effective coaching sessions as well as game plans.

While also being apart of various other Coaching at different ACS International schools in Cobham and Egham also most recently head of mens basketball at Goldsmiths University running a successful program with the team being promoted (in the 2021-22 season) going 10-0 in our conference. My hobbies outside of basketball, is to travel and explore new places in the world.
