Top 5 influences in your life:
1. My brother Rob teaches me how to keep focused,
2. Scotty and Sally Kell show me how to be passionate about     wakeboarding,
3. Brenda & Neil Harris remind me that we should only move
    forward in life.
4. All my sponsors push me to extend out of my comfort zone in     wakeboarding, they keep me from being stagnant. (KGB, Hyperlite,     BlackDiamond, Liquid Malisha, Malibu)
5. My Mum, I want to be a mirror image of her.

What gets you stoked: Getting on a plane and travelling to a different country to wakeboard. I love travelling and I love wakeboarding. The combination of both is what I want to do for a very long time.  I’ve been to Russia, Spain, Singapore, Doha,
Taiwan, Texas, Korea and all over Australia to wakeboard.

Sponsors / Shout Outs?: I’d like to thank KGB, Hyperlite, Black Diamond and Malibu for supporting me since the first day of my wakeboarding career. I have recently joined the Liquid Malisha team and I can’t wait to see what that brings. Riding with Scotty at BlackDiamond and receiving ongoing support from Hyperlite and KGB is definitely why I am still wakeboarding today.
