Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?
British-Canadian Basketball Pro Born 1984 One of the tallest kids in my class, I loved all sports. When just 10, Dad said: “You’re going to be a basketball player!” He took me to the ’94 FIBA World Championship and from that moment, I wanted to play! Toronto was home. I was coached by George Kraus at Markham District High. We transformed our team winning multiple tournaments. I played at Maine Centre Institute and was offered a scholarship at Maryland’s Loyola University, coached by Jimmy Patsos, leading the team to one of their most successful seasons. Graduating, I had a pre-draft NBA workout with the Toronto Raptors. Turning pro, I was spotted by Team Canada head coach and legend, Leo Rautins, who offered me a Canada development squad place and introduced me to my first agent. That took me to Europe – Cyprus, Luxembourg and France - before joining Sheffield Sharks in 2009. I’ve been with them ever since, playing over 400 league games, scoring more than 4,000 points and helping to win four championships. I’ve stepped into new areas, working as the Sharks’ marketing manager and enjoying my role as Sky Sports NBA analyst. Because of dual nationality, I’ve been lucky to represent both – the Canadian Men’s Development team as well as England, captaining the team at the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games - a huge honour. It’s been some journey but shows you can make dreams a reality. All it takes in hard work and the love and support of those who believe in you.
