From a very young age she knew she wanted to be a swimmer, then at eight years old, after watching Susie ‘O’Neill win the 200 Butterfly at the 1996 Atlanta Games, she decided she too wanted to become an Olympian.

She then went on to become one of Australia’s greatest ever Olympians, winning three Gold Medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, all in world record breaking time. Stephanie announced her retirement from the sport in 2014 at the age of 24. She then went on to win the high rating Australian TV show ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ that same year, making her the youngest winner of the show worldwide.
