Profile

Whilst in education at Abingdon School he gained colours for the rowing team. After leaving Abingdon in 2013 he attended Queens' College at Cambridge and joined the Queens' College Boat Club.

Rowing

In 2014 he was selected as the cox for the Cambridge light blue boat at the world renowned Boat Race but finished on the losing side. A second appearance as cox in 2015 ensued but Cambridge once again lost. A third appearance arrived in 2016, which resulted in a win.[1] In addition to representing Cambridge he has coxed Great Britain's under-23 men's eight crew, steering them to sixth place at the 2014 World Rowing U23 Championships in Varese, Italy [2] and a silver medal at the 2016 World Rowing U23 Championships.
