Tokyo Olympian and Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games Champion.  I have endured many ups and downs during my judo career. This has made me the person I am today and has built in me a drive to help others become better today than than they were yesterday. I believe that having the right people around you to support your journey, whatever that may be, is extremely important and leads to better experiences and results.

Involved in coaching judo on many levels from grassroots to performance.  I have delivered programmes as an athlete mentor, and as a role model for young people from a diverse range of backgrounds that has led me to positively influence the lives of many more.

Involved in judo since the age of five. Team NI member for 2014 CWG. British medallist at junior, senior and master events. Numerous British Police titles.

I feel extremely fortunate to have been able to compete/train all over the world and meet lots of amazing people, many whom have become firm friends. Very proud to be part of Edinburgh Judo and really do believe that they change lives for the better. Constantly impressed by the incredible team and members.

Still clinging on to my competitive side but focus is switching to give something back, along with providing support to those who wish for it.

I Started judo when I was 4 years old. My parents thought I needed to be able to defend myself and hoped it would build my confidence. It has definitely ticked both of these boxes as well as so much more.

As young person I was always very active and sporty. I tried many sports from swimming to gymnastics but in the end judo was the one I fell in love with. It’s taught me so much more than I ever expected. I’ve not only learned how to fight but more importantly how to get back up and go again, in training and in life. This mentality has set me in good stead.
