Personal Profile:

I started playing ruby at the age of 5 for the lower primary up to my high school years, as captain of the 1st team. I am energetic, enthusiastic and self-motivated person who take my rugby career serious.
I rose steadily after arriving at the Sharks from Namibia. In 2012, I won Sharks u19 Most Improved Player of the year and in 2013 was awarded Sharks u21 Backline Player of the Year.
I featured for the Sharks at Vodacom Cup level at both Wing and Fullback and scored many tries during my time in Durban.

I moved to the Bulls at the end of 2015, and consistently started as a Centre in Currie Cup Qualifiers. I was then drafted into the EP Kings Currie Cup squad, where I started as a Wing in the Premier Division.
