When and how did you get into gymnastics?
I started gym when I was 6 years old at Burwood United Gymnastics Club after the suggestion of a primary school teacher. I started elite when I was 11 years.

You move into the senior ranks this year, after ending your years in the junior division very successfully. How was your time in the junior division?
Junior international division had not been a great experience for me. Last year I fell ill a day before the Team competition and I didn't compete at my best. So making the Australian team for A.YO.F was an absolute thrill. It made up for it last Nationals.

Recently you finished fifth amongst many of Australia's leading senior gymnasts. How does this motivate you for this year, and how do you think you will go in the senior division?
Coming fifth amongst Australia's best has given me the confidence to know that I can do it.

What do you consider to be your best achievement in gymnastics so far?
Coming 5th at the Netherlands Trial and along with getting in the Australian team for AYOF.
