My Fitness Journey

My passion for fitness began in high school and college through sports, especially rugby. However, my lean physique posed a challenge in such a demanding sport, sparking my commitment to build a stronger version of myself. I still remember my first time in the gym—the soreness lasted nearly a week!

As a beginner, I had no idea what I was doing, but my determination kept me going. Over time, my dedication to training and nutrition led me to my first bodybuilding competitions in 2014, where I won all my divisions and earned the title of New Zealand National Overall Mr. WFF 2014. By 2018, I had earned my Pro Card in Men’s Physique, allowing me to compete on professional stages locally and internationally.

In 2021, I faced a major setback when I broke both of my knees. The recovery was mentally and physically tough, but I refused to give up. I focused on rehabilitation and rebuilding my strength. In 2022, I came back stronger, winning a Pro Show contest and securing my Mr. Olympia qualification, placing me among the best in the world. This journey has reinforced my belief that setbacks are simply opportunities for comebacks. With hard work, discipline, and resilience, anything is possible.
