How do you stay motivated and push yourself in training?

I stay motivated by setting goals and surrounding myself with an amazing training squad. As well as having excellent coaches for surf and pool training.

Many athletes have pre-game rituals that help them get into the zone. What are some of your personal pre-game rituals or routines that you believe help you get in the zone before hitting the beach or pool?

Close my eyes and vision my race whilst shaking out my arms.

Reflecting on your career so far, what would you consider as the most memorable or defining moment?

Being selected in the youth Australia lifesaving team that competed against New Zealand at the battle of the Tasman competition.

Are there any specific achievements or milestones that you are particularly proud of and that you feel have significantly impacted your journey as an athlete?

3rd in u17 Ironman at Aussies, as well as a couple open taplin medals.

Beyond your athletic pursuits, do you have any hobbies or passions that might surprise people?

 Surfing and maths.

How do you balance your intense training and competition schedule with personal interests outside of your sport?

I think it comes down to organisation and how you manage your time. Planning each week lit so that you can maintain your training commitments as well as balancing a nice social life is really important. 

What are your top 3 ENGINE products (either for racing or training)?

Shredskins, Bullet Googles and Club Cuts.
