i am nearly 18 years old(only a couple more months!)

although i am relitively young, i have lived on both sides of the globe and travelled to many different areas of the world with sports. As well as studying behavioural science at college, i have a fairly high understanding and knowledge of human devellopment and kinesiology and biology in the human body.

TO ALL THE LADIES:I play on a men's team and have grown up with mostly guys around me as my close friends. i am extremely close with my team, they are my second family, and over time they have started to see me as 'one of the boys' and have stopped acting like theres a female in the room when i'm around-so i understand the resons behind a lot of mens' actions through hearing them talk and just being around them so much in general and am extremely good at reading their behaviour. i am also quite good at communicating their behaviours to others-something which they are not always quite so good at doing!

I also live on my own, which has been one hell of a change but i am VERY close with my parents and talk to them regularily. I also LOVE coaching and working with youths-it's a passion and i hope to persue it as a carreer. The oppritunities i have had have given me the life experience that few people my age would have, but i also am young enough to understand or atleast relate with most people in their teens. i would love to help out wherever i can and hope i can get the same from all of you:)
