PDs Stuff |
|
| PD Member Since: | November 2013 |
| How I Got Into Paddling: | Was a fill-in boyfriend for my best mate (at the time), who was too much of a jerk to watch his girlfriend race for the UTS Sydney Dragon Blades. Later needed an activity to lose weight after spending more than a year living in the US. |
| Favourite PD Moment: | Nationals 2014, winning Mixed 500m against Sunshine Coast (watched from sidelines) |
| Three words to describe PDs: | Passion Meets Method |

Other Stuff |
|
| Role Models, Heroes & Heroines: | Roger Federer, Jurgen Klinsmann, Stan Marsh, Eminem, Tupac |
| When not paddling most likely to be found: | (Had to think hard…) Playing hockey, dreaming about the snow, watching EPL matches on streaming |
|
Three people you’d like to invite to dinner: |
Biggie Smallz, Tupac (and help them make peace!), can’t think of a third person – I normally just enjoy my own company at dinner. |
| Superstitions (Paddling or Otherwise): | I don’t like walking on the gaps between concrete pavement slabs. I hate neglecting equipment because it’ll come back to bite me. It’s probably why I’m only ever reluctantly willing to lend equipment because no one will look after equipment like me! |
