2007 World Cup 1

My best result so far was 4th at the 2015 London World Championships.

My paddling community. They have encouraged me and helped me to improve to where I am now.

Keep moving forward

I love paddling in Penrith for the winter. The other athletes there make it like having an extra World Cup or two. I also love Tacen for the big whitewater and challenging flow of the course.

Podiums, podiums, and more podiums.

Sometimes I snowboard and cross country ski.
