Sales Director, PRF COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Biography:

 

With a lifelong passion for sailing, it was inevitable I would find myself in composites at some point. Prior to my current role with PRF, I worked for an industry-leading UK-based sailcloth manufacturer, primarily concerned with racing laminate sails. Utilising carbon and aramid fibres in one design and grand prix circuits with success in I14, Fast 40, Imoca and Mocra classes, this pushed my interest further towards performance materials. I realised early on with PRF that there was a steep learning curve to navigate, and the diversity of composites ensures there is always something new to learn. This maintains my interest and desire to be part of such a fascinating and cutting-edge industry. I gained my commercial business experience working for a German automotive OEM supplier and a leading tyre manufacturer and have also gained much experience with long stints offshore sailing either racing or supporting ocean rowing events.
