Personal Statement
Hi
Thanks for viewing and would love to share with you a bit about my background.
I come from Melbourne Australia.
I grew up in the hills of the Dandenong Ranges . I was school captain in grade 6 of the local primary school where there was only around 60 students.
I used to volunteer in the local landcare group helping to restore the bushland.
I spent the last 3 years of primary school falling in love with basketball. Because I only had a mum who had a really bad injury at work the local parents at the school helped to get me into basketball because they saw that I spent every moment I could at the school court.
I then began training with NBL legend Darryl McDonald every morning before school while playing in the local team on weekends and then later rep on Friday evenings .
I didn’t just fall in love with the game but the chance to be in a team and have a bigger sense of family.
So I took this passion further by going to basketball academy’s and trying out for the State team and refereeing on weekends .
Besides basketball I love exploring through the Australian bush, trying new cultural food with my friends and I running my own hair cutting business.
