I am a qualified teacher with a bachelors degree in Primary Education specialising in Health and Physical Education and my love for soccer started at a very young age. Growing up in Canberra, I quickly fell in love with the game, spending countless hours on the field and playing for various local teams. Through hard work, determination, and a deep passion for the sport, I was able to develop my skills and advance to play for clubs such as Monaro Panthers, White eagles, Woden Valley, West Canberra and even in an NPL2 club in Victoria called the Goulburn Valley Suns. I have also played in the Canberra premier league futsal league for many years playing for Queanbeyan-Palerang and South Swift Futsal club and represented ACT for futsal. 

Alongside my playing career, I transitioned into coaching, knowing that I could continue to make an impact on the game by helping others improve. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching futsal Nationals in Brisbane and Sydney also at White Tigers academy, Kids Football club, Motivate football club, Woden Valley and GV suns where I've seen firsthand how soccer can not only develop technical skills but also build character, teamwork, and leadership qualities.
