Early career
Lewer began figure skating in 2006 at the age of three.[2][1] He originally trained at the Boondall Figure Ice Skating Club in Brisbane, where he was coached by Elizabeth Cain and Sean Carlow.[3]
Eventually deciding to pursue pair skating, Lewer moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado, where he began training under Drew Meekins. For the 2021–22 figure skating season, he teamed up with American pair skater, Campbell Young.[3] Representing Australia, the team competed on the 2021–22 ISU Challenger Series, finishing eighteenth at the 2021 Warsaw Cup and seventeenth at the 2021 Golden Spin of Zagreb. The team also won gold at the 2021 Ice Challenge and on the junior level, bronze at the 2022 Icelab International Cup. Their partnership eventually dissolved after the season finished.[4]
Partnership with Williams for the United States
2022–2023 season
In August 2022, Lewer teamed up with American singles skater, Naomi Williams. It was soon announced that the team would represent the United States and train in Colorado Springs, Colorado, under coaches, Drew Meekins and Natalia Mishkutenok.[5]
The pair debuted at the 2023 Midwestern Sectional Championships, where they won the silver medal on the junior level. They subsequently won the silver medal at the 2023 U.S. Junior Championships and the gold medal on the junior level of the 2023 Bavarian Open.[6]
Selected to represent the United States at the 2023 World Junior Championships, the pair came in seventh place.[6][7]
2023–2024 season: World Junior bronze
Although initially assigned to compete on the 2023–24 ISU Junior Grand Prix, Williams/Lewer were forced to miss entire series after Williams tore a ligament in her ankle that required surgery. After six weeks off the ice, Williams returned to training in late October.[8][9] They made their return to competition at the 2024 U.S. Junior Championships, winning silver for a second consecutive time.[6][7]
Willis/Lewer then competed at the 2024 World Junior Championships, winning the bronze medal.[6][7]
2024–2025 season
Debuting on the senior international level, Williams/Lewer started the season by finishing eleventh at the 2024 John Nicks International Pairs Competition and winning bronze at the 2024 Tayside Trophy.[6]
Given one ISU senior Grand Prix assignment, the team competed at the 2024 Finlandia Trophy, where they came in eighth place.[10][7]
In January, Williams/Lewer made their senior national debut at the 2025 U.S. Championships in Wichita, Kansas, coming in sixth place. Selected to compete at the 2025 World Junior Championships in Debrecen, Hungary, the pair closed the season by finishing that event in ninth place.[6]
