About Me
I won my first competition in 1967, and also competed as a professional. The most exciting competition was in 1974 when I was placed 1st in Latin at the Asian Pacific Championships. I completed my first Professional Degree in 1982 and completed them all in all styles in 1988.I was examined by Margaret Reeve from Australia for my Fellowship in 1989. In July 1989 I was made a B grade examiner and in 1990 I achieved an A grade Examiner.
