About me

From Big Dreams
to a New Purpose

I was born in Perth in 1989 and built a construction business turning over more than $20 million a year. Behind the scenes, I was battling addiction. By 2022 I had lost my marriage and my business, and I was declared bankrupt.

That became my turning point. I got help, studied psychology and, in 2024, founded Six Seasons Recovery, a rehabilitation and mental health retreat in the South West of WA. Now I use my experiences to help people who are struggling to rebuild their lives.

Six Seasons Recovery

Recovery Is Just
the Beginning

In 2024, my fiancée Hayley and I moved to the South West of Western Australia and founded Six Seasons Recovery, a private rehabilitation and mental health retreat. Our first guest arrived in May 2024.

Six Seasons represents the lessons I have learned, the mistakes I have made and my belief that other people deserve the chance to change their lives too. I don't just want people to recover. I want them to thrive.

Recovery is the beginning, not the end. Here is what I hope people leave Six Seasons with.

We've been to the lowest of lows.
Now it's time to chase
the highest of highs.

What I believe

People Can Change

Back people who back themselves

If someone is honest with themselves, takes responsibility and puts in the work, I will always want to see them succeed.

Your past is not your future

Your past can explain where you have been, but it should never dictate where you are going.

Change takes accountability

Honesty, consistency, the right support and a willingness to face the hard things. Every single day.

Recovery is the beginning

The goal is not just to recover. It is to thrive, excel and get everything you can out of life.

Speaking

Sharing My Story
to Inspire Change

I speak openly about my experiences: business success, addiction, losing everything and the long road back. My goal is to inspire, give hope and show that real change is possible.

Today I'm engaged to Hayley and dad to two beautiful boys, Hugo and Louie, with Hayley's daughter Miley soon to be my stepdaughter. We also have two much-loved fur babies, Sol and Kegs (affectionately known as Keg on Legs).

You'll find me at the gym, in a sauna or an ice bath, watching the Western Bulldogs or the cricket, or planning the next trip to Bali. I'm also studying Psychology Honours at the University of Adelaide.
