Career
At a height of 175cm (5"8" or 5"9") and a weight of 72 kg (158 or 159 pounds), he was (along with Samantha Paxinos) one of the first two Olympic swimmers from his landlocked country. Although he failed to swim the 50m race in the required time, he was able to go to the Olympics as a wild card. Swimming in the fifth heat of the 50m freestyle qualifications, he finished with a time of 25.54 seconds, completing the race sixth in his heat and seventy-second overall.
He did not advance to the semifinals.
