Favourite thing about competing?
My favourite thing about competing is the adrenaline rush you get as soon as the starting gun fires.
Role model and why?
My role model in life is my Mum. She is incredible and has taught me how to be resilient, dedicated and has always supported my dreams. My sporting role models include Courtney Hancock and Liz Plumiers. These women were my inspiration growing up and who I aspired to be like.
What inspires you to be your best?
I want to inspire the next generation of little sports stars that anything is possible if you work hard and chase your dreams. I also want to know that I have given myself the best opportunity to achieve all my dreams throughout my career.
Do you have a routine to help you get into your best-focused state?
I love to go for a swim at the beach we will be racing at the morning of competitions to check out the arena and the conditions.
Career highlight?
Being the youngest female to ever win the Nutri Grain Ironwoman Series
Goal for this season?
Finish in the top 5 of the Ironwoman Series
Favourite food to eat the night before a big competition?
My favourite food before a big night of racing is steak with sweet potato and salad or avocado chicken pasta.
Why do you choose Engine?
I choose Engine because they are the best in the business. They have everything you could possibly need to succeed in and out of the water.
Favourite Engine Product? Why?
My favourite Engine product is the Weapon goggles. I use them in the pool and the surf every day to help me achieve my goals.
