My Ōtūmoetai College hockey coach, Allan Galletly, has been a lifelong inspiration and the man who was responsible for growing the skill base that led me to the Black Sticks.
I am privileged to be a current member of the New Zealand Women’s Hockey Team, and have been able to balance this with having also achieved a Bachelor of Science from Massey University. Ōtūmoetai College allowed me to achieve successfully in both the academic and sporting arenas, teaching me balance whilst providing me with extensive opportunities to excel.
