Paralympic T37 division sprint athlete powered by Laurium Capital South Africa. I am determined to represent South Africa at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.

I am a proudly South African Paralympic T37 track athlete, based in Limpopo Province, born with cerebral palsy which is basically impaired muscle function, in my case on the right side of my body (hemiplegia). That being said, my physical challenges have never stopped me from reaching my goals. I have a passion for pushing the limits of what I am capable of and for inspiring those around me to do

An explosion of the senses at the 2026 Franschhoek Literary Festival - Unbridling Putting it in words It’s hard to put our experience at the Franschhoek Literary Festival (FLF) into words. It was an explosion of the senses. Perhaps I could liken it to biting into just-baked puff pastry made with fresh farm butter. You breathe in the warm, buttery aroma. You hear the crisp crunc...

We had a wonderful literary adventure in the Western Cape earlier this month and feel so grateful to everybody who made the effort to join us at various events and took the time to say hello and have a chat.

From the launch of Unbridling at the Cavendish Square Exclusive Books, gifting copies of our book to The Blue Sky Library and to Maties Sport, to our book being featured at this year’s Franschhoek Literary Festival!!

Thank you, Indeed Books, Karavan Press, Otto Foundation, and Franschhoek Literary Festival 🙏 for making it all possible. We had a blast!!

We spent a wonderful few days in Cape Town before heading to the Franschhoek Literary Festival tomorrow.

As you can see on the first photo; the waters at Mouille Point have calmed somewhat but it's always breathtaking to stand and witness the vista that the Cape of storms presents.

Even when on a Literary adventure, training calls 😉 and Rondebosch Common (photo two) provided the perfect setting for some drills.

Tomorrow marks the start of the three-day Franschhoek Literary Festival, and we are so excited to be a part of it!!

See you there 😃
