Dunedin,North East Valley
Summary
I have grown up and lived in Dunedin my whole life. My family consists of Mum, Dad, my older brother and myself. Both my Mum and Dad attended Otago University. I enjoy both school and extra-curricular activities with a great group of school friends. At school I have excelled at Hard Materials making a pizza oven and other house hold furniture. I have spent most of my life at Moana Pool either in the competitive swimming programme, a part of Otago water polo or as a part time life guard or water polo referee. Over the years I have competed in various sports including swimming, gymnastics and waterpolo at representative levels and more recently with my friends playing social netball. I have always had a passion for health and fitness and will continue to have this passion through my University years.
