It was this big thing going around saying it was a 400% pay increase, which don't get me wrong, it's a pay increase.

And I'm so incredibly blessed to be joining the team when that happened.

Like I would not be able to, you know, I didn't have a visa for a bit, so I couldn't get a job and, you know, have extra money coming in.

So I would not be surviving if we didn't have that pay increase.

But it's still not realistically enough for what we do as athletes.

Neither did I. I'm with you on that one.

Literally, I have to pinch myself every day that I'm in this position because it just is insane.

Yeah, I did not think they would ever even... It's called America's Sweetheart.

Yeah, America's Sweetheart.

Why do they want a half Aussie, half New Zealand chick on the team?

Like, it's pretty incredible, but I'm honestly so honoured to be representing both countries.

So I hope I'm doing them proud.

You're exactly right.

All of the above as to what you just said.

And I completely agree.

It has so many different categories that you're filling into one role.

But for me, it came about just as any other normal girl.

I had a dream from a young age about making it in the dancing industry.

And obviously there isn't a lot of opportunity in Australia.

So we have to, you know, hunt a little further.
