“I have worked with Hugo at ISM since 2018, the main things for me as an athlete when it comes to management is knowing that my best interests are at the forefront and also reducing stress outside of my training so that I can focus on gymnastics and hitting my targets.
 
We have worked very closely together as team with the same drive and ambition to achieve our common goals in and out of sport.
 
As an athlete I think about life after gymnastics so it’s very important for us to also be forward thinking to how we can work together to create opportunities out of my passions and to also build longevity
 
It’s been great working with ISM, they have made this all possible and I look forward to continuing to work with ISM in the future”
