I am passionate about bike riding and have experience competing in a range of disciplines including track, cyclocross, mountain biking and road cycling. My objective in bike fitting is to ensure that other cyclists are able to maximise their bike riding experience – with a focus on comfort, efficiency and performance.
In addition to being a Steve Hogg Approved bike fitter, I am currently completing a degree in Exercise Physiology and Rehabilitation at the University of Canberra. The combination of these learning experiences enables me to approach the biomechanical issues being experienced by individual clients from multiple angles.

I am incredibly fortunate to live in the same city as Steve Hogg. This has provided me with the opportunity to undertake an intensive and lengthy apprenticeship with him over several years. Through this experience, I have learnt that some of the skills required to successfully conduct a bike fit cannot be taught. They are developed through hours of observation, practice and repetition. A focus on micro adjustments, through careful listening, and having a ‘fine touch’ and ‘keen eye’, is where the critical difference is made and results in improvements for clients in their riding experience.
During my sessions with Steve, I learnt the importance of patience, problem solving and focus during a bike fit. There are always multiple options/factors that need careful consideration during a bike fitting session; each individual is unique; and there are no predetermined outcomes. The key to a successful bike fit is to remain open-minded and remove any bias or judgement.
Steve has been a fantastic teacher and mentor. It has been a privilege to spend so much time learning from him while observing and participating in his bike fitting sessions. I am grateful for his generosity in sharing his knowledge and skills, as well as for his time and patience.
