This program is a great platform to push for tangible change within our sporting communities. LGBTQIA+ inclusion within sport is very important to me and I hope I can make athletes, especially those who are up and coming feel welcomed in their respective environments.
I am hoping to make a difference through educating and engaging with the community around LGBTQIA+ inclusion. It is important to me because I believe that young athletes should know that there are people like them in sport, and that they are not alone. Sport brings people together and I believe it should be used as a vehicle for inclusion and progression within our society.
