Rich’s journey began in elite Australian sport more than two decades ago, where he collaborated in either as an athlete, coach or in a commercial sense with some of the country’s most respected sporting organisations — including the Western Bulldogs (AFL), Melbourne Storm (NRL), St Kilda FC (AFL), Fremantle FC (AFL), Melbourne Tigers (NBL), and the Melbourne Vixens Netball.

Throughout his career, he has played a pivotal role in helping dozens of teams achieve premiership success, driven by his uniquely developed mindset and culture methodologies.

He is also the author of four insightful and results-driven books:

1. The Minds of Winning Teams: Creating Team Success Through Engagement & Culture

2. Injury-Free: Mental Training for Elite Athletes

3. Engage & Grow: 6 Steps to Building Highly Engaged Teams (co-author)

4. Stress-Free: How to Thrive Under Pressure In Unprecedented Times (2020)

Rich’s business and leadership achievements have been recognised nationally — he was a finalist in the Australian Optus Business Awards (2016–2018) for Business Leader of the Year and Export Business of the Year, and a finalist in the 2017 Telstra Victorian Micro Business of the Year.

Beyond business and sport, Rich is the co-founder of Blokes United, a heart-led community dedicated to supporting men’s mental health, with over 23,000 members.

He is also a proud and devoted father of three daughters — a role that continues to inspire his purpose and passion.
