LIFE OUTSIDE OF WORK

Alae is married to Darryl Boy, a physician sub-specialising in Pulmonology. Together they have 3 children – two canine and one human.

Their favourite pastime is spending time together as a family, particularly exploring lesser known areas of our beautiful country.

When the stars align, Alae can be found in a quiet spot engrossed in a biography or historical fiction novel.
