I am very excited to work within this role, and look forward to the challenge and working collaboratively with the IOMAA, local clubs, and IOM Sport.

I hope I can help people of all ages and abilities progress and enjoy their involvement in athletics, whether that be as an athlete, coach, official or volunteer. I strongly believe that as an Island we can flourish and continue to establish ourselves as an exceptional athletics community.”
