I was never interested in study at school, not by a long shot. I found a love and appreciation for sport later in life, which led to my position as an elite athlete. To be so passionate about triathlon the process of getting better is important, but I know it can’t be the only thing in my life.

I’m going to study in this industry to learn more to help create a steady balance, so I’m not all consumed by one thing, as unfortunately a sporting career has an expiry date, sometimes sooner than others. I want to know I’ve been able to learn and find a vocation that I can go to when it is time for me to transition out of being an athlete, and move into a field I love working in as much as I enjoy my time as a triathlete.
