  • Swimming Australia

I am a two time Olympian, with an unusual journey, and experience ranging from being your best, dealing with adversity, the importance of team work and much, much more.

A 4 time Olympic medalist, I was the first Swimmer in 92 years to win a medal in the 200m, 400m & 1500m freestyle, and have won the full set of medals - Gold, Silver and Bronze- at every Major International Swimming meet.

I am a passionate keynote speaker.  In 1999,the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) recommended to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) that I be nominated as the preferred sporting personality to address the United Nations General Assembly on behalf of Australian and World athletes. At the General Assembly in New York, I introduced a peace resolution on behalf of all the athletes who would be competing at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. 

I have also been fortunate to speak and serve as a panelist across a number of companies and industries.

More than just a 'retired swimmer', I have tremendous experience in topics relating transition and wellbeing, organisational change, resilience, equality and overcoming adversity and I currently work as the Head of Olympian Services at the Australian Olympic Committee.
