Not 100 per cent sure, but I am studying Sport Management at University. Maybe a management role at a professional sport team or managing athletes.
Making the Australian team to compete in the 4x200m Freestyle Relay at the 2013 World Championships in Barcelona, Spain.
Wanting to do better all the time. Once you get a taste of being on the world stage, you're always striving to get there again.
