  • Hobbies / Surfing
I am 14 years old from Kingscliff, NSW and am part of the Kingscliff Boardriders Club.  First started surfing at Moreton Island, probably my favourite place, the whole family goes there, my cousins and we stay at my grandmother's house. My other Grand Parents live in Italy now and always thinking of them and I know they will be supporting me from over there. I transitioned from soccer and Surf Life Saving, to surfing when I was eleven as I enoyed the creativity, freedom, and the feeling of being in the ocean. I eventually started winning a few of the smaller comps, then last year in 2023 I had a great year and earnt first place at the Phillip Island Pro Junior for my age group, then runner up at the Billabong Occy Grom Comp. At the end of 2023 I was the rankings leader on the Surfing Australian Junior National rankings U16. I love putting a comp rashie on, and also inspiring young upcoming surfers to do their best.  Looking forward to meeting new people, surfing new waves, and being there for Team Australia. Thank you to Stcy Surfboards, Rip Curl, FCS, Sun Butter Skin Care, Carve Eyewear, Kingscliff Boardriders, and the Kingscliff Community for helping me get here.

  • Hobbies / GOLFING, GYM
I was born on the Gold Coast but have lived in Fingal Head (Northern NSW) for most of my life. Fingal is away from the GC crowd with great waves which has shaped my surfing to what it is today, it's also just down the road from Duranbah and Snapper Rocks, which has given me the opportunity to get comfortable in some of the best waves in the world. 

The punchy beachys found around the Tweed Coast and the Gold Coast have shaped my surfing to be explosive and unpredictable, allowing me to practice my air game everyday which is a major part of my surfing and what I love doing the most. I plan on changing the way Australian surfing is seen by adding huge airs to my competition repetoire. 

I finished up 21st on the 2023/24 WSL Australia/Oceania QS rankings and also finished 1st place on the 2023 U/18 Surfing Australian Junior Rankings, which has led me to to the ISA Junior Championships where I aim to Captain the Australian team to gold.  I'm stoked to represent Australia and I am thankful for all of the support from everyone at home who has helped get me over to El Salvador!
