About

I spent my childhood in Phoenix and completed my high school education at Havenpark Secondary School. After finishing school, I started a Public Relations course but was unable to complete it due to financial constraints. Subsequently, I joined the Hare Krsna Movement (ISKCON) and lived at the temple as a celibate monk for a decade. During my time there, I honed my relationship skills. After leaving the temple, I began my career in radio.

Experience

Since 2005, I have worked as a radio personality, starting my career as a trainee presenter at SABC - LotusFM. I have since gained experience as a production manager at Megazone Bollywood and as a station manager at both PhoenixFM and MUT Radio (the campus radio for Mangosuthu University of Technology). In addition to my broadcasting work, I also run a training academy where I teach new presenters the skills they need to succeed in the industry.
