About
I am delighted to step into the position of Australian Sports Commission CEO and I bring a wealth of corporate and sports administration experience to the role.
As a four-time Olympic medallist, I have applied my winning philosophy of excellence, resilience and determination to build my post-swimming career.
In my role as CEO of the ASC, my focus is to ensure the great work of our participation (Sport Australia) and high performance (the AIS) teams allows our nation to continue to thrive.
Our purpose is clear: to make Australia stronger through sport and build sustainable winning systems for Australian athletes.
I look forward to working closely with our diverse range of stakeholders as we continue to build on the green and gold runway to Brisbane 2032.
