he/him
CEO
The Active Hands Company

I am now a dad of 2 and CEO of the Active Hands company. I have previously been involved in disability sport as a wheelchair rugby player, a medal winning wheelchair racing athlete and have completed all the world marathon majors. I have also been an events organiser, DJ and promoter. I have travelled the world many times as a backpacker and with my work and sport. I am an inventor, engineer and entrepreneur and have grown the Active Hands Company from a few design ideas to a brand known worldwide for making products to help those with reduced hand function.

Life doesn’t always go as planned but there is always opportunity and chance for enjoyment in every situation.
