I started karate when I was 4 years old. I continued until I was about 10, getting my junior black belt around '98. I picked karate up again when I was 15, trained a year or two and regraded as a senior black belt, first dan. The style was Zen Do Kai. As a teenager I played most sports; basketball, volleyball, indoor cricket, soccer, tennis, jazz ballet, softball.. but I stopped most things in favour of aerobics and gym in later high school. I grew up in a country town called Echuca. I started teaching Les Mills classes at the local YMCA in 2003. I started as a Personal Trainer in 2005.
In 2007 I moved to Melbourne to complete a Bachelor of Exercise and Sport Science at Deakin University, majoring in Physiology and Sports Nutrition. During this time and after I finished uni, I worked as a Personal Trainer at Fitness First. Mid 2012 I backpacked around Europe, volunteered in the Maldives, and moved to London. I managed an LA Fitness in Piccadilly Circus for a while, but the money was impossible, so I decided to change industry and work in sales/ marketing.
I was sponsored in sales/ marketing, and lived in East London for four amazing years. In 2015 I moved to Sydney. I managed the upgrade of the Health Club at Five Dock Leisure Centre. In 2017 I started at Vault Boxing, working as a boxing and lifting coach. I trained 3-5 hours a day, for 6 months to fight, but 2 weeks before my fight, threw my back out and couldn't compete.
