Interview
Q : How did your rugby career begin, or how were you introduced to rugby?
A : I was introduced to rugby by a friend who was going to practice and didn’t want to go alone. I never intended on playing because I was doing lacrosse at the time. But I loved it and the coach asked me to play in the game two days later so I stuck with it. Screen reader support enabled.
Q : What do love most about rugby?
A : The people I’ve met, the friendships I’ve made, and meeting Gerri Russell.
Q : What would you like people to know about rugby who have never encountered the sport before?

Q : If I had an airplane full of jellybeans and I wanted you to get them all out, but in a very sanitary way so that I could still eat them, what would you do? You have 24 hours to do this, but you have unlimited funds
