Where It All Started
Swimming and surf has always been part of my life. Both my parents did sls so I grew up around the beach and surf carnivals. Being around that naturally got me into the sport and grow a love for swimming.
The Journey Nobody Sees
My family has had the biggest influence on the athlete I am today. Growing up, I watched both of my parents compete, and later my sister as well. Seeing their dedication and passion for the sport inspired me from a young age. I also grew up playing lots of different sports and dancing, and I was never the best at swimming or surf. As I got older, my passion for both sports led me to fully commit to them. Because it's something I genuinely love, it makes it easier to push myself every day. My goal has always been to become the best I can be, challenge myself, and see how fast I can become.

Beyond the Sport
Outside of the pool, I work full-time in auditing after recently graduating from uni with a Bachelor of Business majoring in accounting. I love balancing work and sport by spending weekends with family and friends and getting coffees, sweet treats and açaí bowls
