The reality is that after four years the Bank of Mum and Dad are still financing my journey.
However, this year I have signed up for the Australian Sports Foundation (ASF). For any donations you make over over $2.00 through ASF you will receive a tax deduction receipt. The ASF keep 5% for other sporting causes and I receive 95%. It is a win:win for everyone. You can make a donation using the following link of any amount, and I will be forever grateful.
I trained hard in Salt Lake City and over all I had a great 2024/2025 season. I had many ups and a few downs. Most memorable was beating a gold medal winning 2022 Winter Olympian. I also moved up about 50 places and am now closing in on being in the top 50 racers in the world. If I keep up this level of improvement, I'll be within the top 20 by the end of this year. My downs were getting food poisoning in Beijing at the World Championships and not racing consistently at my best.
Even though I have improved, I still feel like I'm an 'Eddie the Eagle' with the odds are stacked against me, but this makes me even more determined.
These are my 2025/26 expenses, currently paid by the 'bank of mum and dad' and hopefully some very welcome donations.
Airfares: $14,000
Training USA: $11,000
Accommodation: $ 9,000
Insurance: $ 2,000
Food: $10,000
Equipment: $ 4,000
TOTAL $50,000
I am still studying for a Bachelor of Science, Mathematics and in my space time I like to draw and learn Japanese.
If by some chance you want to sponsor me, I will consider all offers. I can place your logo on my helmet, my suit, my boots. I can promote your company at Corporate Events, I can promote your products in your advertising, and you can use my image in your Corporate promotional materials.
