We asked James a few quick-fire questions
What attracted you to WLTF?
To be able to work with world class practitioners and athletes. To be able to be under the guidance of Laura and Ciaran was an opportunity I couldn’t let pass, their wealth of knowledge can only enhance my skills
What is your super-strength?
I feel my strength is that I can wear many hats, covering many departments. Therefore, I can assist in most aspects of an athletes development.
What are your ambitions for the future?
My ambition is to keep learning and working with exceptional practitioners and athletes to enhance my own abilities so that I can provide better coaching and care.
What else should we know about you?
I actually enjoy running marathons as opposed to sprinting like the athletes at WLTF.
This is my second career after first being in the fashion industry in New York.
I’m awesome ……
…… and modest too, James will fit right in!
