I am incredibly grateful for the support that the AIS Education Scholarship has provided me during my sporting and athletic career. Having the opportunity to continue my studies and continue to prepare for life after sport without the additional financial burden of University fees is a huge weight off my shoulders.

It's often very challenging to be able to keep a balance between my life goals, training and competition, but I have always found that study has really helped me to apply myself mentally in a different avenue outside of Judo, and I know that when I look to finish my career in the future, I will have the foundations of qualifications to be able to transition successfully into my career industry.
