What gets me up in the morning?
I try to go for a walk in the morning before I touch my phone. I feel like this is a great way to start the day and energise myself. I strongly believe that approaching life with the goal to 'positively impact as many lives as possible' is the key to long-term success and fulfilment. As a result, the first thing I always ask myself when I rise is "Who can I positively impact today?".
Why am I passionate about 'Kicks For Kids'?
Travelling to over 40 countries in my lifetime, including Mexico, China, South Africa, Kenya and Tanzania, I have seen poverty and lack of opportunity across the globe. I recognise that I am incredibly lucky just to have a roof over my head and food in my belly. I'm even more privileged to have been able to play a variety of sports all my life. In my mind, Kicks For Kids is a wonderful way to provide children across the globe with a means of fun, community and connection that most kids in Australia don't even consider to be a privilege.
