Club:
Club Merrylands, NSW
Bowl Used:
4H Dreamline, 4XH Alpha
Why do you use this bowl?
Dreamline provides a consistent draw on the slower greens in Canberra, and the extra heavy Alpha combines stability in the wind and a comfortable draw on quick greens.
How and when did you start bowling?
I took up bowls at 12 years of age at Capalaba in QLD and played until I was 18. I took a 10 year break to start my career and decided to return in 2009.
Career Goals
To wear the green and gold at an international level and to make women’s bowls a little more exciting!
Career Highlights
Winning the Inaugural Australian Junior Girls singles in 1998 and, more recently, being offered the chance to represent Australia in the near future.

Which bowlers do you enjoy playing with and/or against?
I love training with club mates and up and coming juniors. They are the people who keep me focused on the most important side of the bowls – having fun, meeting people and helping each other achieve our best!
Who do you most admire?
Craig Lowndes from V8 supercar racing in Australia. He is a fantastic person who keeps a good level head whilst managing an excellent sporting career, family and working on his farm.
What would you do if you weren't bowling?
I would be more involved with the coaching side of the game, and helping our juniors reach their potential.
