| Favourite thing about competing? | Having a goodtime with my friends and meeting new people from all over Australia. Spending days at the beach, competing against the best in the country showing off our skills and proving why we are the best. A sense of accomplishment and feeling proud when I perform well and seeing all my hard work pay off. |
| Role model and why? | Brielle Cooper because I have always looked up to her from a young age but more so now since we go to the same surf club. She is always so positive and supportive to everyone around her. She is one of the most determined and hardworking people I know, and she won’t let anything bring her down. |
| What inspires you to be your best? | I want to make my coaches, family, and friends proud. As an athlete I have sacrificed so much and so has my family, so I want to make them proud and also myself proud by achieving my goals. The feeling you get when you reach your goals and achieve your dreams. |
| Do you have a routine to help you get into your best-focused state? | Just try to relax and focus on my breathing and try not overthinking too much |
| Career highlight? |
Getting the call up to race in the last three rounds of the 2020/21 NutriGrain series U15 Australian ironwoman champion |
| Goal for this season? |
Make the NutriGrain series. Medal in all individual age group events at State and Aussies. Make all open iron finals |
|
Favourite food to eat the night before a big competition? |
Pasta, chicken burger, veges |
|
Favourite song to listen to prior to competing or during training? |
Not too picky with my music, but anything that will get me pumped up and I can have a little sing along to is good. |
|
Why do you choose Engine? |
They have the best culture and the best range of products. Their products and support allow me to perform at my best. |
| Favourite Engine Product? Why? | Weapon goggles, Brazilia one piece. They are the comfiest pair of goggles and are great for the ocean. The swimmers are the comfiest and most supportive swimmers for both the ocean and the pool. |
