Hello, I’m Ivan — the Head Coach and Manager of Dawave. I have over 10 years of paddling experience, along with several years of coaching.

Dragon boating has been a major part of my life. Through Paddlers Anonymous, I’ve made lifelong friends — including my beautiful wife, whom I’ve had the joy of competing alongside. My passion is helping paddlers enjoy the sport as much as I do.

Fun Fact: I collect Pokémon!
