I have two years experience as a Professional Rugby Player for England and Great Britain Sevens competing on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series, the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, and the 2022 Rugby Sevens World Cup. My career has given me expertise in passing, breakdown (jackaling), fitness and speed work, and tackling.
I have played footy for 25yrs, with SANFL experience at Norwood, Central Districts and time in the Adelaide Crows SANFL program. I have played in 4 A-grade premierships in the Barossa and Spencer Gulf Football Leagues. I also have experience playing State Country football in 2019 along with Country Champs and rep footy. My area of specialisation is ensuring players reach their full potential, including fitness, skills and decision making. I am a teacher that enjoys working with young adults to create goals that will improve their individual and team performance.
I am currently playing for the Essendon Football Club in the AFLW. I have recently been drafted in December 2023 and I am incredibly grateful to be where I am today! I have been playing footy since I was 8 years old in Geelong. I represented the Geelong Falcons from 2021-2023 and was lucky enough to have captained the side in 2023. I also played in the Victoria Country team and co-captain the side! I am a very passionate person when it comes to AFL and I am inspired by the incredible culture and opportunities within the football world.
I am a North Melbourne AFLW player who was drafted with North Melbourne’s first pick in the 2023 draft. I have grown up in WA where I played footy since I was 13 for both my club and my school. In 2022, I was lucky enough to win a WAFLW League Premiership in my first year playing with Claremont at 16 years old. Being apart of such an amazing and successful club on and off the field has inspired me to share my knowledge and positively impact younger kids as my mentors and teammates did for me at a young age.
I am a current half, contracted with the Brisbane Broncos, heading into my second season with the club after making my debut in 2023. I've played close to 100 QLD Cup games where I've won five/eight of the year over the past two seasons (2022,2023). I was also the highest point scorer in 2022-2023.
I am currently a member of the national futures squad and recently competed in the under-21s nationals in Newcastle. I am very passionate about coaching, and eager to help young athletes find their potential and to support them through their personal journey on and off the field. Through my years playing hockey, I've gained a deep understanding of the sport, and I'm excited to pass that knowledge on through coaching.
