Give us 5 words that best describe you as an athlete:

Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My favourite memory of my golfing journey so far would be shooting my Personal Best (-2) for the first time in Cronulla Junior Championships to beat my sister by a shot, as the underdog!
Goals:
My main goal is to pursue my passion for the game of golf, through achieving a professional status and becoming a tour player – but first all of being part of an athletic team in College Golf and achieving goals for the TEAM.
I want to prove my ability to myself and hold myself accountable through the process of getting better.
Anything else we should know?
I like to be challenged and I work hard at setting and achieving goals.
