Working in the north west of Scotland as a Sea Kayak Guide in the season of 2018 was my first professional step into coaching and guiding. From here I worked my way through the British Canoeing syllabus to become a Sea kayak leader Provider. Prior to this I had a first class degree in Exercise Physiology and Biomechanics and had always been involved in the leisure industry in some capacity. In addition I was involved with a couple and chairman of one Canoe club where the passion to see members develop and grow spurred me on to develop “discovery kayaking”.
