I am a part of Tennis Australia’s National High Performance Academy at Melbourne Park.
I reside in Sydney and am currently coaching while the COVID19 Pandemic changed things with travel. I trained at the National Tennis Centre, Melbourne Park. My coach is Peter Luczak who I enjoy working with immensely. Back in 2011 at 15 I left juniors behind and travelled around the world playing in Futures events with my father as my coach and support to gain some experience.
My home is in Sydney again. Bulli Tennis Centre, south of Sydney was where I trained from age 7 with my very first Coach and close friend Edwin Barclay. I was selected and whilst the youngest, was part of the Australian Junior Davis Cup Team for 2011.
I made it to my first Quarter Final match in a Challenger Event in Melbourne in late 2013. I played my first Australian Open Qualifying Event in 2014 for the main Draw of the Australian Open Men’s event. In 2017 I qualified for my very first Australian Open Main Draw. I won my first Maiden Pro Tour Challenger Title in February 2016 in Launceston Tasmania. I have listed below some of my favourite things as well as some of the things I like and dislike;
