I started playing basketball after picking it up at an Easter sports camp, I enjoyed it there and my Dad agreed to take me to try it out. I started at Woking Blackhawks where I played U14 NL when I was 9/10 years old. From there, I got invited to go to a Surrey County trial for U13's, I got into that team and played in the County tournament, then I got invited to go to the South East RPC (equivalent to Aspire). I tried out for the U13 SE regional team and got selected. The team went to Lilleshall and played in the regional tournament where we came 3rd. From there I got an email from England Basketball (EB) that I was invited to the England U15 national team long squad. I went through a year of trials and camps, taking many of my weekends up (usually in Sheffield or Manchester) and I made the final 12 as a 13 year old. I went to the Copenhagen Invitational where I sat on the bench for the majority of the games (I was a year young), but I learned a lot and when I had the opportunity to play, I made the most of it. The next year, I played for the U15 SE team in the regional tournament, I got selected for the U16 England team. I played in a pre-tournament game series against Ireland, but from there I was cut to the U15 team. I got selected into the final squad, I was named captain and played in the Copenhagen Invitational once again. The next year was very similar, I played for SE U15s, got selected for the U16 England squad, I made the final cut and went to the European Championship div A in Porto, Portugal. During the trials, I had to make tough choices. I made the decision to move clubs mid-season, there were many things that led to me moving to Sevenoaks and it is one of the best basketball choices I have made to date. I was playing U16 and U18 NL, sitting on the bench for WBBL and completing GCSEs. I had to make the choice of going to camp or going to prom (I chose camp). The Europeans were tough, we lost every game but it was still a valuable experience. Then I got into the U18 England team the year after, got cut down to the U17s, played in a tri-nation tournament. The year after that I played for GB U18s womens, under Vanessa Ellis in Dublin, Ireland while struggling with knee injuries. It was some of the best basketball I have played in my life, we came 4th, and as soon as I came home I was off to America for university. I spent hours emailing college after college and one finally gave me a chance. Northeast Community College, a div 1 JuCo (Junior Colloege). I was there for two years, we won the region.  We almost made it to March Madness for JuCo in my freshman year and sophomore year I was a captain. I met my fiance there as well! I then transferred to a D2 school, University of Sioux Falls, looking back at it now, I do not regret my choice. Unfortunately, I was not in a good place mentally, add a stream of injuries from hamstring strains to stitches in my lip and a partially torn thumb ligament and basketball became a job rather than a game. I did not play how I could play and did not get the opportunity to play because I had not earned it I made many mistakes on court.

COVID hit March Madness was cancelled and I never wanted to play basketball again, so I went home and did not go back. I started coaching for Cobras that summer, and over time I fell back in love with basketball which has led to me currently playing WNBL for Reading Rockets where I have been for a season and a half and I am happy to play basketball again.
