Speed Climbing

I have been competing in climbing since 2016 and have specialised in the Speed discipline since the start of 2022. Originally from Wellington, I moved to Mt Maunganui in 2017 to train full time for the 2018 Youth Olympic Games. Six years later, I have achieved the life-changing, mind-blowing result of qualifying for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. With the original aim to bring balance to my climbing, I have completed my Bachelor of Science in Environmental Sciences at the University of Waikato over the last three years. I am now doing a Master of Science in Environmental Sciences as well as training full time.
