Bio
I am a journalist in Cape Town, studying towards a Masters in Journalism from the University of Stellenbosch. I love interacting with others, being influential and discussing the political climate.
I volunteer at a non-profit organisation called Operation Smile. This has taught me the importance of everlasting interactions with people. I work as a radio producer, requiring me to interact with and assist people daily. Lasting impressions are what counts - and you might be the only help anyone is able to get - so make it count.
