About Simon
Simon grew up rowing in Whanganui, New Zealand — training alongside future Olympic champions like Mahe Drysdale, and Rob Waddell. He coached in New Zealand and Australia for over two decades before moving to Los Angeles in 2016 to lead the UCLA men's rowing program.
With 30+ years in the sport across three countries, Simon brings an international perspective on athlete development that's rare in American rowing. He co-founded CrewLAB to give every coach access to the tools and systems he learned in the New Zealand high performance pathway.
At LA Lions, Simon leads the High Performance program and oversees coaching across all squads.
