BIO:
My name is Jody-Ann Asanya Brown. I am 28 years old and reside in St. Andrew.I am currently a member of the Portland Women’s Cricket team and made my debut as a member of the Jamaica Women’s Senior team in the recently concluded Regional T20 and 50 overs competition.
I first represented Jamaica at the U-23 level in 2005 and went on to represent the country at the U-19 level up until 2009.
I am a left arm spin bowler and a right handed batter.
When I’m not playing cricket I also lend time to my other passions: music and philanthropy. I am the founder of Help Di Yutes Foundation that was started in 2016 and since then we’ve collected and given donations to a total of 11 children’s home.
