What or who inspired you to become an athlete? Watching the New Zealand Olympic Team competing in the LA 1984 and Seoul 1988 Olympic Games when I was growing up on TV.
How has AISB helped you with your sports career? I loved playing Basketball at AISB and we also did lots of other sports like fun-runs, swimming and tennis. I was able to try lots of different sports to gain different skills and stay active.
What are some of your best memories from AISB? Coming from a very small farming community in New Zealand it was incredible to suddenly have friends from all over the world, and it was amazing to be able to learn from them about different cultures and ways of doing things. One of the best things was the ice cream shop just down the hill from the school where we used to queue up on the way home!
How did AISB influence you as a person and build your character? I think the exposure to so many different cultures and people from all around the world has helped me to have a broader view on the world and be more tolerant and understanding of different ways of thinking.
