"I have been involved in Athletics since the age of 6. I have always loved to run and always knew that big things in the sport was my destiny. I seriously started to train full time after year 12 schooling. I then was able to get serious about training. Things were on the rise when I was suddenly struck down with 2 years of injury. But I fought my way back and now find myself off to the World Championships in Berlin for the 4x400m relay team, and running the best I ever have. My next major goal is to qualify as an individual 400m runner for Delhi Commonwealth Games in 2010. I am very excited about receiving a Runner's Tribe sponsorship as having media coverage on a popular site such as Runner's Tribe is fantastic for any athlete's profile. I am also really looking forward to being decked out in New Balance athletic gear as this will certainly reduce my financial stresses"
