Extra-Curricular Activities

Swimming (2012 - 2023)

I swam at Mount Kelly College, where I have competed in many galas such as the London Youth Games and even the English Nationals. Through swimming, I have learnt many key and valuable lessons such as the power of mental training and how to be resilient, especially if you want to succeed but also that failure isn't always a bad thing.


Rowing (2023 - Current)

I took up rowing while at Cardiff University and competed a few times. Since starting rowing, I have most definitely improved my teamwork and communication skills, which are very valuable in every career. I have also learnt how to manage my time better to keep my attendance high for training and keep up with school work.
