Hobbies

  • Swimming
    Swimming has always been my passion and I have worked with the Department of Civil Protection with other swimming coaches to teach water awareness in the flood prone areas in Zimbabwe in the hope of creating a drowning free generation. I am currently helping to introduce the Swimming and Save a life campaign under the Kirsty Coventry Trust.
