Her father played rugby union [15-a-side] and encouraged her to take up the sport. "When I was born, rugby was in my blood and also the influence from my dad made me want to pursue a career in the sport. The culture of the game and how it is played inspired me a lot. My childhood was pretty much a sporting one. My life was surrounded by a dad who pretty much loves rugby and played the game as well." (fiji-sun.com.fj, 14 Nov 2020)
