Most memorable experience: Making my Currie Cup debut in 2026.

Pre-game ritual or superstition: Listening to worship music and trying to stay calm.

?Biggest inspiration: At the moment, it is Travis Mills. He is a retired US soldier who became a quadruple amputee while serving in Afghanistan. He speaks across the country, motivating others to live by his motto: "Never give up. Never quit." He has also established a foundation to build a retreat for other special-needs veterans injured in combat and their families.

Challenging moment: In 2022, I had a big foot injury which kept me out of the game for a year.

Hobbies or activities: Camping, fishing, woodwork and coaching.

Advice to younger players: To be patient and to remember that everybody's path looks different. Trust God's plan!

Your rugby legend: Ma'a Nonu.
