I was born in South Africa and grew up on our family farm. After school I took the plunge and packed my bags for for the bright lights of Joburg to fulfill a life-long dream of a career in show business and to get a degree under my belt. I graduated from AFDA, making me the proud owner of a BA Arts degree.

I think it’s safe to say that sport has always been my thing. I excelled at it during high school and my parents’ mantelpiece is filled with my trophies. One of my greatest achievements was participating in the SA Games. Once the sporting bug bit me, there was no going back. I don’t just love participating, I’m also an avid sports fan and follower – you could say it’s a bit of an addiction.

2009 was an exciting year for me. I became involved in social media and social networking and as they say, one thing led to another. After a couple of Red Bulls during a Bulls game my partner and I came up with the idea of RuggaChick - rugby commentary that is new, fresh, different and presented by me, a chick who likes rugby, a lot.

When the 2010 Super 14 season kicked off so did RuggaChick and it’s been growing ever since. Every week I produce full HD videos with updates on the weekends games and results that is then posted on my various channels and website. I’m also active on all the social media sites and let’s just say it’s been a bit of a learning curve, but an extremely rewarding experience and one that I’m tremendously grateful for. RuggaChick has been growing hand over fist and I’m very excited about the future.
