"Working part-time for Deloitte while training and competing as an athlete has been incredibly beneficial. It allows me to balance my sporting commitments with gaining valuable work experience and skill development. I believe Deloitte’s athlete program is a fantastic initiative that supports athletes in their dual pursuits, offering them a smoother transition into the workforce both during their sporting careers and after retirement. This program not only helps us build a professional foundation but also ensures we have a strong and advanced career path once we step away from competitive sport."
