I enjoy and participate in a variety of sports. I keep myself fit by running and cycling mainly. In September 2006 I completed my first ever marathon in a time of 3 hours 52 minutes and 52 seconds. I am currently training to complete the Auckland marathon in November and hope to complete it in sub 3hrs 30mins.
Whilst traveling South-East Asia, I completed an extensive 3-month scuba diving course. Working with PADI Instructors, in this program I expanded my dive knowledge and honed my skills to the professional level. My PADI Divemaster training developed my leadership abilities, qualifying me to supervise dive activities and assist instructors with student divers.
Since being in NZ I have taken to spearfishing in the summer and have advanced my thirst and passion for mountain biking. I intend to complete the 42nd Traverse track in National Park this coming December.
I particularly enjoy many adventure sports including rock climbing, snowboarding and kayaking.
Being surrounded by beautiful scenery when being outdoors attracted me to picking up a camera and have since discovered that I enjoy photography.
