1. How do you stay motivated and push yourself in training?

I stay motivated and push myself by knowing what I want to achieve and work on in the session, and enjoying challenges with my friends.

2. 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?

Before a swimming race I jump as high as I can and I slap my legs to warm them up and always check the block.

Before a surf race I check my goggles and condition of the waters, and tell myself what the course is for the race.

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

Winning my first individual gold medal in the Surf Race at State Junior Championships 2024, helped me to believe that I had done enough training to put myself at the front of the races, which ended up with me winning 7 Gold medals and 10 overall medals.

4. 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?

Winning my Surf Clubs most outstanding competitor which has had other current successful open athletes on it.

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

I enjoy running, sprinting, long distance and cross country. I am also really interested in nutrition and how it helps you to perform.

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

I like to be fully organised with my schedule so I can spend time with my friends and family. I like to map out competitions and training so I can plan my days. I even get Google clock to set timers to help me stay on track.

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