A bit of background on our newest member:
As a well travelled Yorkshireman and a big Sheffield United fan, Justin moved to Sydney in 2016 from London with his wife Jean and now 4 year old daughter, Aria.
Justin played many sports as a younger man and having been a half-decent amateur footballer and tennis player he really didn't have much opportunity to play golf. As time and gravity took its toll, he finally made the decision and took up the beautiful game of golf in 2004 (mainly as a replacement for football) as he was missing the camaraderie of team sports and it's been a journey of his (self) discovery ever since.
Thankfully, he has not yet broken a club in rage yet, but he has taken on a few small shrubs with a sand wedge....
His working life has been in capital markets (JP Morgan): for the last decade in FinTech start-up land and more recently in Blockchain and Crypto Assets. Justin is a director at PwC advising in these exciting fields.
Justin's favorite type of golf course is a Links course because of the scenic beauty, challenging weather conditions and fast greens - that and the fact that he spray it off the tee, he can still get it back...
