Get to Know Me

Having achieved the goal of first Age Grouper overall in Kona 2019, I am excited to embark on a new journey to pursue triathlon professionally. Having juggled triathlon alongside a very intense job for 4 years, I am now working 2 days a week for Lloyds Banking Group alongside training as a professional triathlete.

In my first couple of seasons despite the pandemic I have qualified for both World Championships in 2022, won 2 Ironman races, set 2 bike course records and am ranked 30th in the world.

Alongside triathlon my passions are cooking, wine and chocolate, and spending time with my friends
