I am a passionate Physical Education teacher with over 20 years of experience across Victorian primary schools. I’ve always believed that every child—regardless of ability or background—deserves the opportunity to experience the joy and lifelong benefits of sport. Alongside my teaching, I’m proud to contribute to community sport through my roles as Inclusion Project Coordinator and Committee Secretary at Waverley Gymnastics Centre. I also coach both basketball and netball, helping young athletes grow in confidence, skill, and teamwork. As a parent, I support the importance of sport with my three children. Both my girls, Aisha & Keira, are gymnastics coaches at Waverley and Keira also competes at Level 10. My youngest, Xavier, is a keen basketballer, a brown belt in karate and also loves BJJ. Together our family has been at the club for over 16 years. Supporting children, both at school and in the community, to find their passion in sport is what drives me every day.
