Injuries:

In July 2019 she broke her wrist during a race and had to undergo surgery. (pelotonwatch.com, 07 Apr 2020; Facebook page, 16 Jul 2019)

Start:

She took up cycling at age 14. (australiancyclingteam.com, 01 Feb 2020)

Training:

She has up to three training sessions a day. "As for hours, it's hard to pinpoint because it depends on the phase we are in. Track is a matter of intensity rather than volume. I might be at the track for three hours and only do three, four-minute efforts but those are all max effort. However, Monday to Friday I'll be at the track or on the road from 09:00 to 17:00 so they are very big days." (pedalnorth.com, 22 Mar 2020)

Memorable:

Being selected to compete at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (pelotonwatch.com, 07 Apr 2020)

Hero:

US cyclist Chloe Dygert Owen. (pedalnorth.com, 22 Mar 2020)

Influence:

Coach Brett Aikten. (pedalnorth.com, 22 Mar 2020)

Philosophy:

"I'll find a goal or a passion and stop at nothing to see through with it. I guess it is just this irrepressible desire to be better than I was yesterday." (pedalnorth.com, 22 Mar 2020)

FURTHER EDUCATION
She is studying for a double degree in law and marine biology at the University of Adelaide in Australia. "I would call myself a pretty academic person, I love university. I have a passion for marine biology, and also the core belief that environmental conservation and change starts from a political and legal standpoint. Doing a double degree in law and marine biology is unconventional and difficult, but I trust my instinct and hope I'll be able to make a difference in society one day."
