About

A final year Post-Graduate LLB student with a BA(Law) degree, aspiring to make a meaningful impact on my community through my legal knowledge and passion for active citizenship.

Experienced in University Leadership roles and volunteering initiatives, I thrive in collaborative environments and believe in the power of service to others. When I'm not delving into articles about politics and law, you'll find me immersed in my love for art, photography, design, and marketing - where my creativity knows no bounds. My creative endeavors fuel my drive to innovate and my commitment to lifelong learning and holistic personal growth.

Excited to connect and contribute to conversations that bridge law, service to others, and the arts.

Miscellaneous

In my various capacities as a student leader at Stellenbosch University I was often required to organise events, present year plannings, and facilitate leadership and team-building workshops. I received training, via Stellenbosch University, to facilitate educational sessions for first-year students, on topics such as disability awareness and gender-based violence, in January 2021. Organizing included sourcing venues, catering, creating marketing material and communications, programme design, photography, and report-back debriefing sessions.
