BIO

Born and raised in Joburg, I attended St Mary’s School Waverley throughout my primary and secondary education. I was able to follow my passions through my elective subjects in high school: History, Art, and French with Zulu as my second additional language. I exercised my love for rhetoric as a keen member of the debating team. My dedication resulted in my achievement of full colours, being named head of debating, and the Robyn Knowles trophy for the best debater. My commitment to social activism led to my peer elected position of the Student Representative Council for four years. My conviction to question the status quo gave me the distinction to be awarded The Steve Biko award for a history student who exhibits the qualities for which Steve Biko stood. My strong personal ethics granted me the opportunity to receive the Rees trophy for a matric pupil who engages with and applies ethical issues in Life Orientation. My love of learning drove me to earn an academic honours blazer and matriculate with five distinctions.
