South African journalist. Film Critic.

I am a journalism student at the Durban University of Technology currently serving internship.

My particular interest is in human interest and development stories with refugee rights as well as social and gender justice as broader causes of significance.

Africa is my source of insipration, the literature, films, her people, her land.

A moniker which includes the words « activist journalist »
is my ultimate career goal.

I love the colour red because it is strong yet feminine, just like me. I believe laughing really is the best medicine and I do plenty of it, keeps me young. I enjoy writing as it gives me an outlet for the madness in my head.

My motto is « I think therefore I am! » I believe that each person has it in them to achieve whatever they put their minds to. You just have to prepare well, work hard and apply yourself. I live fully, love wholeheartedly and laugh… HARD!
