I have always had a passion for the outdoors. Rooted from my native South African heritage where my family exposed me to pure and untouched lands. From mountain peaks to coastal paradises.

โ€‹

This land's beauty shaped my love for nature and so began my journey of swimming, cycling and running in the most beautiful places where I grew up.

Pretty early on in life I had a desire to compete and started achieving.

First as a swimmer and then as a cyclist and runner.

 

Competing in all three sports separately as well as many others at a very high level. It only made sense to combine them into triathlon racing too. From school level, to national and eventually international. I am so grateful for the places sport has taken me and for its lesson on the importance of hard work and discipline. 

โ€‹

I am honoured to have a Silver and Bronze World Championship Medal to my name from these experiences.

โ€‹

I am a recent graduate of Florida Atlantic University where I was competing for the Track Running Team and studied a Bachelor of Fine Art in Graphic Design.

โ€‹

After many years of thriving off multisport racing I recently decided to focus my energies on Track Running and I am both excited and nervous to see what I can achieve with this new goal in life.

โ€‹

My path thereafter is not set out completely yet but my ultimate goal is to become a professional athlete and successful designer as I transition from being a student athlete.

โ€‹

To chase my dreams and live a life of passion is my ultimate goal.
