Her parents put her into the sport because she was a hyperactive child. "As soon as I started gymnastics all I wanted to do was train and get better, never did I think that I would end up representing Australia regularly at an elite level for trampoline gymnastics."

NINJA WARRIOR
She has appeared on the obstacle course competition TV show 'Australian Ninja Warrior'. "I was a bit nervous because I've never done a ninja competition before, and it's very different to gymnastics. I kind of got up to something that I knew I wasn't as physically capable of, like the cliffhanger with fingers is so hard, especially because all my [gymnastics] training is just grip strength, I don't do anything with my fingers."
