Despite the passion and success, being an athlete also comes with many failures and setbacks. Developing mental fitness has been essential to not only bouncing back and succeeding in sport, but also in life and for overall wellbeing. The support I have received from the VIS has been important for me, and I hope to be able to support others in a similar way. As a HPE teacher I also have a passion for health and supporting young people to develop their own healthy habits.

I hope that my passion for health combined with my experiences as an athlete can share powerful messages to help young people develop their mental fitness and contribute to their health and happiness.
