What school do you go to?  I am a year 11 student at Christchurch Girls High School

What do you enjoy about your sport?  What I enjoy about swimming is the relationships I have gained with other swimmers during the time I have been competing. Having close friends really helps to get through all the long hours of training each week.

Best sporting achievement so far?  My best sporting achievement so far would definitely have to be making this team along with a handful of national titles over the last couple of years.

What are your sporting goals?  Over the next couple of years I am aiming to qualify for the NZ Junior Pan Pacific team, and the NZ age group program. But looking further on I'd love to attend the Olympics or Commonwealth Games.

How do you feel to be going to the Commonwealth Youth Games?   I am extremely excited to be going to the Commonwealth Youth Games as it is a once in a lifetime opportunity and am looking forward to gaining heaps of international racing experience.
