Hobbies

I have a passion for health and fitness and had a lengthy career as a competitive gymnast, before my retirement I had over 10 years competitive experience, with national and international awards. While at the time of my career I failed to balance education with sports, I have now learned to apply the same dedication I had to sports, into my studies and career.


To develop my communication skills I have become a member of Toast Masters International and partake weekly in their public speaking sessions, and enter speech competitions. I am also on their Innovative planning pathway which teaches members to fosters useful career focused communication skills.
