From uncovering a pair of rusty roller skates in a garage in regional Warrnambool as an 8-year-old kid to competing for a world championship title in Girón, Colombia, 'Rolaboi, Revival' explores the early years of a two-decade-long roller-skating career, highlighting the struggles with bias, abuse, and the tragic loss of my beloved brother.'Rolaboi' is a candid account of my life. I aimed to celebrate my involvement in the sport, the intensity of competition, the friendships it fosters, the family hardships and joys, and the memories it creates. However, another side of my life needed to be told, the untold stories that remained inner secrets until writing gave me the courage to confront them.This memoir offers a deep dive into my life and career, enriched by perspectives from those who know me best. It tells a coming-of-age story filled with self-doubt and navigating it, first love, conquering nerves, and the challenges of being an elite athlete, all while discovering my identity and coming out in the 90s.Revival is, at heart, a story about pursuing that ultimate childhood dream-the one we all have as kids-to become someone, something greater and better than we ever imagined.
