Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:
Fearless, determined, competitive, focused, extroverted.
Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My favorite swimming memory is annually competing at National Arena Swimming Leagues. Since they are team events, there is already an established team spirit and sense of belonging. Stood behind the block with teammates who have been with you every step of the way, cheering one another on, striving for the team’s success, is a rewarding feeling.
Goals:
Long term, my aim is to seize every opportunity, to reach my full potential whilst still enjoying my swimming journey. A personal aim is to achieve sub one minute in 100m freestyle and reach a higher level of swimming. Whilst focusing upon my own goals, I am keen to make new friends who share similar interests and goals allowing us to motivate one another.
Anything else we should know?
Alongside swimming training. I enjoy running to provide variation within my training schedule.
