5 Biography

I did my first triathlon when I was 8 years old. However it was only about 2 years ago that I started to train properly, find a good coach and race internationally. My first race for my country was in the World X-tri champs in Penticton - Canada, where I a managed a podium (2nd). I have travelled all over the world, and have experienced incredible and diverse places in the process. I absolutely love what I do, and am so grateful for the support of my friends and family to get me where I am today.
