Which surfer inspires you the most? Definitely Steph Gilmore, she has the best style and the best attitude.

What’s your favourite thing about surfing? Every wave is different and I love being out in the water.

When I was a child I wanted to be… I cant remember. I think I was one of those kids that wasn’t sure what they wanted to be.
Favourite wave? My home break for sure which is rennies.

Describe your last twelve months in three words… challenging, stressful, fun

Where’s the most interesting place you have been? Probably Bali.

I wish people would take more notice of… girls surfing.

What are your obsessions outside of surfing? Going to the gym, hanging with friends, soccer.

The best invention… t.v what would we do without it.

If I wasn’t doing this right now, I’d be… I’m not sure probably being bored.

Before I die I want to…. Do a lot of things.

My greatest achievement… definitely winning a pro jnr.

My greatest fear… sharks.

Not many people know this about me but… I don’t know, I’m shy.

My most embarrassing moment would be… I don’t think I have really had one but I would say when I was doing a speech in front of heaps of people and I stuffed up and everyone laughed.

The soundtrack to my life would be… I don’t know what this means but I will say twilight.

My philosophy is… treat everyday as it is your last.
