I started playing rugby in 2004 and fell in love with the sport. Nothing could top the family I met on my first team that has extended into contacts around the world. The confidence built and the knowledge that my body and me are absolutely amazing and can do way more than I originally though possible. 

​

I am the founder of ADEDAR, a non-profit created by me but built by the coaches and players who have committed to rugby in Mozambique for so many reasons! 

​

I'm a PE teacher, outdoor educator, and an avid (non-pro) dancer. Help keep me active during this week and make me work hard. How many burpees do you challenge me to? 

​

Thank you so much for helping us out, building rugby, building confidence, and building a stronger tomorrow.
