Affiliations

  • Sport plays a significant role in my life, and I have competed at a high level across several disciplines. I currently play netball for LexisNexis Dragons and have previously represented Team Bath at both Under-15 and Under-17 NPL (National Performance League) level. Through netball, I have developed strong teamwork, communication, leadership, and time-management skills. In athletics, I am a South West Shot Put Champion, demonstrating dedication, resilience, and a commitment to achieving goals. I have also competed as a regional swimmer, which has further strengthened my discipline, determination, and ability to perform under pressure. Outside of sport, I enjoy spending time with friends and socialising, which has helped me build confidence, strong interpersonal skills, and the ability to connect with people from a variety of backgrounds.

Accomplishments

I have been recognised for both my sporting and academic achievements. In 2026, I was awarded Dragon of the Year by LexisNexis Dragons Netball Club in recognition of my commitment, performance, teamwork, and positive contribution to the club. Academically, I achieved a Distinction in the English Speaking Award, demonstrating excellent communication, presentation, and public speaking skills. These achievements reflect my dedication, confidence, determination, and ability to excel both individually and as part of a team.
