I grew up on the Central Coast of New South Wales, where I was introduced to surf lifesaving through Terrigal Surf Life Saving Club. From my first days as a Nipper, I developed a love for the ocean, competition and the close-knit community that makes surf lifesaving so special. Those early mornings at the beach laid the foundation for the athlete I am today and sparked a passion that continues to drive me every time I race or train.

At 18, I made the decision to move away from home to the Gold Coast to pursue my studies while continuing to develop as an athlete. I’m currently completing a Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Physiology at Southern Cross University, balancing the demands of university with high-performance training. Living away from home has taught me independence, resilience and discipline, and I enjoy applying what I learn through my degree to improve my own performance and better understand athlete health and development.

Whether I’m training in the pool, on the surf ski or in the gym, I’m always looking for ways to improve. My goal is to continue competing at the highest level of surf lifesaving while representing BOS with professionalism and pride. I value the friendships, opportunities and experiences that the sport has given me, but above all, I’m striving to be the best person I can be—both as an athlete and as an individual. I believe success is about embracing challenges, continually learning, supporting those around me and making the most of every opportunity. I’m grateful for the people and organisations, like BOS, that support my journey, and I’m excited for what lies ahead both in sport and in life.
