Send a job offer directly to this candidate
I am a Candidate Attorney based in Cape Town, holding an LLB and currently pursuing an LLM, with a developing specialisation in labour law and the governance of algorithmic systems within the employment context. My LLM research examines algorithmic bias in employment, focusing on the interaction between AI-driven recruitment, performance management, and workplace decision-making systems and South Africa's data protection, labour, and equality legislation. I am particularly interested in the legal challenges that arise where technological innovation outpaces existing regulatory frameworks, and in developing practical legal solutions to these emerging issues.
Alongside my academic research, I am gaining practical legal experience with a particular focus on curatorship estates. My work involves engaging with the Master's Office, managing administrative and procedural requirements, and navigating the legal and human dimensions for this field of law. I am passionate about opportunities that bridge legal practice, academic research, and public interest.
I am particularly drawn to roles within academia, regulatory authorities, Chapter 9 institutions, public policy organisations, and other bodies that contribute to the development of law and governance. Professionally, I am recognised as a collaborative, dependable, and highly adaptable individual who thrives in both team-based and independent environments. Balancing legal practice with postgraduate research has strengthened my ability to analyse complex legal issues, manage multiple priorities, and work effectively across diverse areas of law.
I approach ambiguity with confidence, applying critical thinking and a solution-oriented mindset to deliver practical and well-reasoned outcomes.
