She represented the
Kingdom of Tonga in the
shot put event during the
2008 Summer Olympics in
Beijing. She had the honour of being the
flagbearer for her country at the
opening ceremony. Originally a
sprinter, she is now known for breaking the national Tongan shot put record in 2008 during her European Olympic preparation tour with a
put of 18.03 metres in
Albertville. As she threw over the Olympic qualifying distance of 17.20 metres ten times she qualified for the 2008 Olympics on merit. However, she did not advance beyond the qualification round as her put of 16.42 metres placed her in only the 27th position. She had previously competed in the
2004 Summer Olympics for the event of
shot put, but her throw of 15.33 metres did not allow her to qualify for the final round. On July 2, 2009, she broke the Tongan national record in
hammer throwing, with a throw of 53,53m. She placed 14th in the shot put qualifier of the
2012 Summer Olympics with a put of 15.80 m.
