He won one medal at senior level at the International athletics competitions.[1] He received a doping ban in 1993 after testing positive for metandienone and stated that he would leave athletics regardless, as he was disgusted with it.[2]
In his early twenties, he returned after disqualification to jump a personal best of 5.65 m in 1998. Abandoned his career as an athlete, he dedicated himself to masters athletics.[3]

gollark: Mostly cereal, pasta and bagels with cheese.
