How old were you when you started playing? 5
What’s the highest level of hockey you’ve played in? State Women’s
What representative teams have you been a part of? Under 13s, 15s, 16s, 18s, 21s State Teams, Under 17s Australian School Girls Team, Perth Thundersticks (2022, 2023, 2024)
What’s your favourite hockey memory? Winning the Perth Premier League in 2023 with Suburban Lions in shootouts.
What are you most looking forward to this Hockey One season? Training and playing with players I usually have to play against in the Premier League and being able to develop from learning off them in a high intensity setting.

Go-to pump-up song: Crocus – Boston Manor
Favourite pre-game meal: Rice crackers
One thing on your bucket list: Travel to a different state in Australia for a reason other than hockey.
If you couldn’t play hockey anymore, what other sport/s would you play instead? If I wasn’t concussion prone, maybe AFL
Something about you that would surprise people: I was initially a defender when I first started hockey. I think my 5/6 coach at Hale Hockey Club moved me up to the wing one game and I have been a forward ever since.
