Biography:
When I was 6 years old, my dad would bring me to his socials group. I would have nothing else to do, so I grabbed my racquet and started hitting the shuttle up by myself. Once I was good enough around the age of 10, I started playing small local tournament. I eventually found myself training with a private coach, and playing at the national level just a few years after, competing and challenging the top players in Australia.
Interesting Fact:
I am doubled jointed and a heavy sleeper
